One Region Ready, an effort led by One Region, seeks to provide guidance to businesses and employees on how and when to safely reopen businesses. The strategy leverages expertise from business, healthcare, nonprofit, and government sectors to create a coordinated, science-based approach to restoring the local economy.

Our region is strong, and we are confident that by working together we will emerge from this pandemic even stronger. As we continue our fight against a virus that spreads without regard to lines on a map, the leaders of the Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester Counties are committed to acting as One Region.
