Times that are potentially scary require us to better support one another. In the same way that we bring casseroles to grieving families and baby clothes to celebrate newborns, we can come together as a community to help each other through this difficult time. An essential part of stopping the spread of coronavirus from overwhelming our hospital systems is voluntary self-isolation (

Please give us as much contact info as you like, then tell us about potential situations where you might need assistance, so we can start to match up potential needs with potential offers. Then please make a check next to all potential supports that you have the capacity to provide. All offers of support will be kept confidential until a need arises. These are non-binding, but more to get a sense of the abundant resources we do have.
The CDC recognizes community preparedness as an essential part of dealing with this outbreak:
