Helping our community by protect ing those most at-r iskor vulnerable and reducing the burden on our healthcare system

Prevent ing the disrupt ion of our chi ldren’s educat ionby reducing the l ike l ihood of having mass absences orswitching to v irtual learning

Our best defense against COVID-19 is:

Physical distancing (at least 6 ft)

Washing your handsfrequently

Wearing a face covering
