The Santa Barbara South Coast Chamber of Commerce is enthusiastic about our community and its future. Our mission and vision reflect our commitment to our businesses, residents, and visitors. We invite you to learn more about the Chamber team, Board of Directors, and volunteers—the individuals who inspire, inform, and implement the programs and services of the Chamber.
In January 2026, the Chamber unveiled a five-year Strategic Plan. This plan reflects a year-long process engaging staff, the Executive Committee, and the Board of Directors - along with robust input from members, community leaders, government partners, and past board chairs. Through surveys, interviews, and listening sessions, a clear picture emerged of the region’s challenges and opportunities - and the Chamber’s unique role in meeting them.
The result is a focused plan built around five strategic priorities designed to elevate the Chamber’s impact, strengthen regional economic vitality, and ensure a resilient, future-ready organization. Click here to review the 2026-2030 Strategic Plan.
