The coronavirus pandemic is the most critical global public health, and economic emergency in contemporary times. Federal, state, and local governments immediately enacted non-pharmaceutical measures such as lockdowns, stay-at-home orders, shelter-in-place orders, and remote work orders for non-essential workers to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus. These measures immediately led to an abrupt and large reduction in economic activity and job losses, especially in the service, retail, hospitality, and healthcare sectors of the economy. The purpose of this phenomenological qualitative study was to understand the perceptions of coronavirus pandemic policies by 12 Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) metropolitan area small, minority business owners. The theoretical framework used was complexity theory. In-depth interviews were conducted with small, minority business owners based in the DMV Metropolitan area. Findings indicated that respondents supported the government's coronavirus pandemic response policies. However, public policy, implementation, and enforcement actions should be customized to serve the needs of vulnerable groups. Positive social change is possible if state and local public policy address unique needs of minority-owned businesses during a public health emergency.
