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 💙

EVENTS
Your safety is our number one priority. Due to mandates and out of an abundance of caution, we will not be having any in person events for the foreseeable future. Please stay tuned for any updates, as well as upcoming virtual events. To join our online DTC meetings, send us an email. Stay safe!
Off The Clock!
All through August, the New Canaan DTC will be hosting a fun Off the Clock zoom series with our wonderful legislators, in which each will share a favorite hobby or interest for 45 minutes to an hour, take questions, and chat.
It's a nice opportunity to spend more time getting to know the people who represent us, and for them to be able to get to know you.
We'll kick off the series with our incredible Congressman Himes on Monday, 8/3 at 6 p.m., follow on the remaining Sundays in August with our spectacularly hard-working State Representatives, and wrap up at the end of the month with one or both of our superb US Senators.
Please donate and register here.
