Dear HealthStreet Members,
We know there is growing concern as the outbreak and impact of coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to evolve.

We want you to know, we are all in this together!

• Primary/Dental Care
• Nutritional Assistance
• Vision Care
• Cancer Services
• Mental Health Care
• Employment Assistance
• Housing Assistance
• Education/GED Assistance
• Drug/Alcohol/Substance Abuse Care
• Transportation Assistance
• Childcare/Parenting Assistance
• Legal Services

• Domestic Abuse Assistance
Our staff is actively monitoring the advisories and the policies and state and local health departments. Please visit the official CDC COVID-19 webpage where you can learn more about COVID-19, how to protect yourself, your family, and access a range of resources.
HealthStreet encourages you to view the most recent Our Community, Our Health Seminar COVID-19 Update: The Public Health and Clinical Perspectives. The two professionals who presented have years of experience; in fact, Dr. Rasmussen is the former CDC Director of Public Health Preparedness.
We remain committed to you! Keep in touch via Twitter, Facebook, email (healthstreet@ufl.edu), or by phone (352-294-4880). The calendar will keep you up to date on all of our activities. Please visit our calendar and website for updated information, guidance, and resources.
