Update from our Executive Director, Jon Riley, about the COVID-19 virus!

Siblings, as we all adjust to these extraordinary times it is important to ensure that factual information is available to everyone impacted, which is every one of us. We receive numerous calls every day with questions surrounding the ever changing protocols to stave off the COVID -19 virus, and what they actually mean. With every State, County and City issuing different orders it is frustrating to hear that people living across the Street from each other, but in different cities or Counties have different protocols and information given to them.

I received a call yesterday from Assembly Member Tim Graysons field representative Jana Modena asking what the Napa Solano CLC needs from the Assembly Member and we talked about the need to have a single source to gather trusted, factual information to turn to. She sent me and other Community Leaders this email from the State which consolidates the various directives and protocols for the public to go to for consistent information. The sections covering myths and facts and rumor control is particularly helpful as well as the timeline format that illustrates how the crisis has grown and the need for social distancing made a lot clearer. 
We don’t know how long this will last or what the impacts will be but adhering to the  protocols is critical to a positive outcome. Take a look at the information provided by Assemblymember Graysons staff and look for further updates as we move forward.

Be Safe. And Wash Your Hands – Jon Riley
