UNITE + CELEBRATE + PROMOTE
Our diversity is our strength. We're really getting ready for something that we don't fully understand yet. But, the way you all are working at it together, whenever it comes and whatever it is you will be prepared to take it on because you do it by uniting and celebrating and promoting the values and the vision of a county working like a family. ”

The OneForsyth Approach
|
Launched by the Forsyth County Chamber of Commerce, the OneForsyth Initiative was formed to position and foster Forsyth County as an inclusive, thriving community for all. The initiative celebrates differences and champions inclusive prosperity for all in Forsyth County. We accomplish this by recognizing the various dimensions of diversity within our county, knowing that by embracing them we amplify our collective voice and leverage our strengths.
