Staying solution-oriented

I will say, in my 10 years doing this kind of work, I have never experienced the intense focus on solutions and the extraordinary level of cooperation and collaboration among members of the community, businesses, nonprofits, public agencies, elected officials, neighbors – it’s remarkable.

I just want our healthcare and public health community workers, professionals and partners to know that while we’re focused on these business and economic stability and resiliency measures, we have not forgotten the  sacrifices you and your families are making.
