Opportunity SC Recap

Our 2016 Community Economic Development Conference, Opportunity SC, was a huge success! Thanks to everyone who attended the event in Greenville on September 14-16. We truly appreciate your support and involvement.

The goal of Opportunity SC was to bring together a diverse group of public, nonprofit and private sector leaders who are working collaboratively to build wealth and create opportunity for all South Carolinians. We connected communities with one another and to valuable resources by providing a series of forums, networking events, seminars and training sessions.

Through this event recap, both conference attendees and those who missed it can gain access to a nice selection of event photos, documentation from the informative training sessions and the #opportunitysc Twitter feed...
