Support Local, Independent Business
Locally-owned, independent businesses are an essential part of the fabric of a community. They help to underscore the identity of a place, provide opportunities for people to work and create, contribute to local activities and fund-raisers, and support other local businesses.

- Economic Restructuring, which focuses on business retention and recruitment;
- Promotions, which seeks to highlight local businesses to the broader Washington area, as well as create events and activities that bring people to Old Takoma;
- Organization, which provides the structure for the whole organization and the work of the other committees.
