@Home in Adams County, in conjunction with the Adams County Community Foundation, will host a Community Zoom meeting in lieu of its regular Coalition meeting on January 31, 2022, at 1 p.m.
We realize that we are two years into COVID with no end in sight. While this is frustrating for all of us, we here at @Home wish to check in with our community to find out where things stand as of January 2022. Almost two years ago community and industry leaders joined forces with the Community Foundation to share their challenges and their efforts to combat them. Since that time they have found clever and ingenious ways to help the people they serve.
@Home is asking many of those same community and industry leaders the following: How has COVID impacted your industry and those you serve here in Adams County? How is it likely to affect them going forward? How can the Adams County community help them and the people they serve?
@Home invites you to listen to what they say and to learn how we as a community can help.
Join us live via Zoom at 1 p.m. on Nov. 29. to see where we are with our @Home initiatives and get updates from other @Home projects.
We’ll also hear from Trent Davis, executive director and founder of Servants. Trent will share more about Servants and how they could assist residents in Adams County. Currently, Servants has 600 volunteers in Lancaster and York counties helping to make home repairs for elderly residents. To learn more about Trent and Servants or how you might help, visit their website at https://www.servants.org.
