COVID-19 Response
As the daily uncertainty related to COVID-19 continues, our COI team is aware of the stress and social isolation emerging in our communities. We want to connect in an effort to support one another, and in this time of social distancing, we have modified operations to work by phone, video, and email. While all of the COI domain meetings are currently postponed, we are grateful for the continued support and encourage your ideas on how COI can further support our domain partners and community.
In the interim period, our team has compiled a list of community and government resources to support individuals, families, and businesses during this difficult time. Listed below you will find resources organized by domain, as well as links to invaluable partner websites. By providing these resources, the COI team is not endorsing or promoting any particular organizations, individuals, or programs, but rather highlighting the work of our amazing city, county, state, and federal partners.
In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, our COI team has compiled resources that may be helpful to our partners.
