cal-chamber.pngNew COVID-19 Guidance in 2022
(Source: CalChamber)
Though many workplaces slowed down during the holidays, neither COVID-19’s Omicron variant nor the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) took a moment’s rest. Importantly for California employers, on December 30 2021, CDPH issued their guidance interpreting CDC’s December 27th update to their Isolation and Quarantine guidelines. These changes generally shorten quarantine and isolation periods due to scientific findings that COVID-19 tends to spread mainly early on after infection and when symptoms are present. As a result, they generally shorten quarantine and isolation periods for asymptomatic cases. More details.

logo.pngUpcoming Oceanside Chamber Member Survey
The Oceanside Chamber of Commerce is committed to providing our members with the best possible experience. In line with our commitment to continuous improvement, we are looking to examine our current performance across a broad range of issues critical to our success. The best way to do this is by asking our valued members to participate in our Customer Feedback Research and to provide us with your experience on how we are currently serving your business needs. This important customer survey is being conducted by The Loyalty Zone, an independent research organization on behalf of the Oceanside Chamber.

Thank you for your support!


SOCALLogo-2.pngCoalition of North County Leaders Launch Initiative to Strengthen Regional Workforce Pipeline
A coalition of North County business organizations has announced the launch of the Student Opportunities for Career Awareness and Learning (SOCAL) initiative, a long-term workforce development effort designed to provide students and career explorers with direct access to information and first-hand experiences regarding potential occupations and career opportunities in North County. The direct access and transparency fostered through this initiative are intended to help cultivate the workforce for middle-wage jobs that require less than a four-year college degree.

The coalition supporting SOCAL represent many of the region’s premier business and educational institutions, including Tri-City Medical Center, the Oceanside, Carlsbad and Vista Chambers of Commerce, the San Diego North Economic Development Council; MiraCosta College, Palomar College and others. Supervisor Jim Desmond, who represents much of North County, supported the partners’ efforts to secure a $128,000 Neighborhood Reinvestment Grant from the County of San Diego, which was instrumental to the development and launch of SOCAL. More details. Visit SOCAL website.

Grant Funding for Oceanside Nonprofits Impacted by COVID-19 Launched
As part of its ARPA spending plan, the Oceanside City Council approved $1 million to be used for grants to local nonprofit organizations negatively impacted by COVID-19. To qualify for grant funds, an applicant must be an Oceanside-based, tax-exempt, charitable organization in good standing, as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Grants will be awarded in two categories:

  • Grants ranging from $1,000 to $5,000 to offset revenue losses to the organization due to COVID-19
  • Grants ranging from $5,000 to $50,000 for specific programs or activities (either new or existing) to help to address negative impacts in Oceanside caused by COVID-19

Grant amounts will be determined based on several factors, including financial impacts to the organization related to COVID-19, applicants’ positive impact on community economic recovery and applicants’ capacity to assist underserved populations disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. More details and application.
