COVID-19 Updates and Resources

**Our response to COVID-19**

Your health and well-being is at the forefront of our minds. We urge you to follow the recommendations your city and the state of Alabama has implemented.

We are closely monitoring available information about the Coronavirus COVID-19 in rural Alabama counties. We are working with local government departments and offices as necessary to coordinate responses and share best practices as they relate to people and families experiencing homelessness and the Coronavirus. We are working remotely and still assessing and assisting clients. Our staff will update partners on meeting logistics accordingly.

BE WELL!
