United Way of Greater Mercer County is offering a virtual panel conversation, At the Axis of Access: Responding to COVID, about the intersection of health, financial, and education insecurities particularly in the context of racial inequity and heightened disparities due to COVID. Learn how key organizations have responded to these various challenges and how it will shape their organization going forward. Be a part of the solution!
From moving to remote work and virtual events to navigating federal grants, to helping individual community members navigate public benefits for this first time: there has been a seemingly never-ending stream of challenges organizations have faced since the onset of the crisis in March. The COVID crisis has required all sectors of the economy to pivot and rethink how they continue to serve their communities.
