Advancing Community During a Time of Crisis
We are all experiencing the effects of isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic and realizing how very important personal connections are especially in a time of uncertainty. At SJCS our Mission is to advance inclusive communities, however, the new norm of social distancing we are having to re-imagine what that means. On a daily basis we are leveraging technology to connect the people we support with their loved ones and vital services and therapies. If there is one thing this world health crisis is teaching us, it is how very important a sense of community is, even if we have to rethink and change the way we connect with each other while apart.
SJCS is so lucky to have such dedicated staff who are doing whatever they can to help each other across state lines and provide support services for the most vulnerable members of our communities during this time of crisis. #SJCS #championsincrisis #oneteam #OneFamily #OneMission #COVID19
