DOTHAN, AL, February 15, 2022 -: Dothan Housing congratulates CEO and President Mr. Samuel P. Crawford on his appointment to the Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. Mr. Crawford’s expertise and knowledge as an authority on community relations, public housing, and policy development have proven to be assets to the City of Dothan and the State of Alabama. To receive this appointment is nothing short of an honor.

A chamber of commerce is an organization of business owners and entrepreneurs who promote the interests of their local business community. Chambers of commerce provide access to valuable resources, discounts, and relationships that help businesses save money and market their products. Joining a chamber of commerce can boost sales and significantly improve a local business’ visibility and credibility. The ROI of joining a chamber of commerce specifically Dothan is quite lucrative. Between the promotional opportunities of ribbon cuttings, access to meeting rooms, and networking opportunities, small businesses and entrepreneurs can expect an almost instant return.  

“Being appointed to the Dothan Area Chamber of Commerce is an honor for me personally, but I consider it more of a benefit to our housing authority. ‘We’ must always reach further than ourselves to impact the lives we serve and the community in which we live.  The Chamber of Commerce is our conduit to economic information that allows an entrepreneurial housing authority to remain relevant, authentic, and responsive to the mission of the community. We can now forecast workplace development initiatives that will truly benefit the under-employed, and we now possess the ability to track legislative bulletins that transform lives and rebuild communities.  I look forward to creating an agency that is agile enough to connect with our common collaborations, and stable enough to assist our employees and families with next-generation business savvy,” says Mr. Crawford.

Dothan Housing celebrates the continued success of Mr. Samuel P. Crawford, and the level of excellence displayed every day.
