Rhonda Carlson Recognized with Excellence in Advocacy Award

Recently, the Peoria Chamber of Commerce was ranked #21 on the Phoenix Business Journal’s list of Arizona’s Largest Business Advocacy Groups. This recognition is a testament to our hands-on work and proves that we’re actively working to solve the challenges faced by the businesses that need our help.

We are now celebrating another achievement in advocacy, highlighting the exceptional leadership of our President and CEO, Rhonda Carlson, who was recently honored with the Excellence in Advocacy Award at the Arizona Chamber Executives annual conference.

This award celebrates a chamber that has made a measurable difference through its advocacy work—whether at the local, state, or federal level. The award honors chambers that actively represent the interests of the business community and lead efforts that result in policy change, regulatory improvements, or increased civic engagement. Rhonda’s unwavering dedication is making a powerful difference in the West Valley and this honor shines a spotlight on the true impact of her work.

We could not accomplish this without the support of our members, partners, and the Peoria community. Your involvement drives our advocacy, and we are grateful for the role you play in shaping a stronger local economy. With your continued support, we look forward to building a Peoria where every business has a voice and the resources to grow.
