COMMUNITY SUPPORT DURING COVID-19
The New Canaan Democrats are here for you during this unprecedented time. Our hearts are broken over the loss of our neighbors and loved ones, and we are empathetic to all of the ways the pandemic is impacting members of this community we love so much.
Beyond relaying resources and important information from our local, state, and federal delegations, we want to help you solve the problems that are arising due to the novel coronavirus. Please email us with any needs, suggestions, or concerns and we will do our best to help you find a solution, even if it's just a friendly voice on the other end of the phone on long, lonely days.
For COVID-19 updates, make sure you are signed up to receive alerts from the Office of Emergency Management. Resources are also available on the town website as well as the state website, and Health and Human Services is only a phone call away. Additionally, you can find support by calling or going to 211.
In a continued effort to support our community during this time, we have compiled a list of local non-profit and service organizations that provide resources to those who may be in need, and which would also benefit from any and all support you may be able to offer, which you can find here.
Take care of yourself,
The New Canaan Democrats 💙
