Breathe Sets

During this Pandemic I am still working with 3-6 year old students and their parents planting a large garden at the American Indian Montessori school. We have Zoom lessons, wear masks and garden gloves and keep our distance. This mask was a souvenir from an International women’s conference in 1990. I had it made into a mask to remind myself and other members of PPSEAWA of our commitment to health. We will need to support a vaccination program once that is available.

I work for the North Shore Community Development Coalition as the Community Engagement Manager and I am leading the new ways of engaging the community by making wellness call to all Salem residents to make sure that in this difficult time they are aware of the pool of resources that Salem as a whole is providing. In addition, I have been following up with residents who need assistance completing the Unemployment application and finding ways to support local businesses in the Point Neighborhood.

I’ve purchased masks and gloves for those in need who couldn’t get a hold of some ahead of time. I’ve donated to service people working for all of us out there. I’ve informed people from marginalized communities through our mass media (newspaper) platforms. I’ve honored and respected the guidelines put out there to help protect us all.

Teaching through Covid.
