A Community Organizing Tool
Communities across the nation and the globe turned to many sources for insight on how to overcome the pandemic:
historical responses, theoretical strategies, expert opinions
A few months into the fight we are able to make some judgements as to what actions proved effective and what actions missed their mark.
What we do know for sure, however, is that COVID-19 is an ongoing concern and that certain populations have been disproportionately affected.
This site aims to provide a database of recommendations to help local community leaders address the vulnerabilities of their communities and support their most underserved members in an intentional and evidence-based manner.
