Community Response Assignment 2

Good morning wonderful People,
 
This week you will continue your work with assignment 2 of your project. Last week you should have learned what mutual aid is and how it can help the community. If you still need some help understanding the concept, please let me know.
 
For this assignment you will begin to look for resources to build out physical health portion of your survival kit by asking, “How does COVID-19 affect my physical health and what resources are available to stay healthy?”
 
COVID-19 primarily impacts our physical health, and many folks in our community do not have insurance and do not have access to government forms of health care. So, we need to find them ways to stay healthy and to treat some common sickness, as well as where folks can get tested.
 
You will need to provide information about:
 

• Local free clinics that provide health services
• Local free Covid-19 testing
• Ways to get low cost medications
• Herbal / Homeopathic remedies to help boost the immune system.
• Mask Making
• Hand washing
• Healthy eating
• ETC.

 
You will need to find these resources and their contact information. However, you need to make sure that these resources are real and will not take advantage of your community. You will need at least 6 resources.
 
For example you will give me :
Name of clinic:
Address of clinic:
Phone Number:
Hours and days of operation:
 
Or you can post recipes or instructions.
 
 
Here are few sites to help you along the way.
