Join us for our first workshop as we discuss the impact of COVID-19. The session will be facilitated by Maria Teahan, PhD Barry University School of Social Work.

The Module will introduce the community to a brief historical perspective of COVID-19 as it entered the United States and Miami-Dade County designated as a pandemic. The focus will be on the participant’s early experiences as it relates to the COVID-19 crisis and its multi-dimensional impact on individuals, families, groups, and communities. The Module will provide participants an opportunity to share their narrative with others in their respective communities is the foundational goal of this workshop. 

The main focus is to be able to create an environment whereby community members can share their experiences as it relates to the impact of COVID-19 on their lives, and learn from each other’s stories. The participants will also be presented with a brief overview of coping strategies to maintain an optimum level of wellness. Future modules will present in-depth details of coping strategies through the crisis.
