We're on week two of a vastly different working situation and a rapidly changing world. There's no telling what will happen next or how long the COVID-19 response will last. One of the few things we can control is our response to a stressful situation.
We've compiled some resources below that might be helpful. Please feel free to share resources that you have found helpful for future editions of the blog (you can comment below or email bv8h@virginia.edu).
Take care!
A special thank you to Cynthia Douglass, Danielle Hancock, Linda Leshowitz, UVA Today, and the FOC team for links they've contributed.
