Town halls to provide COVID-19 information, engage and learn community needs
Ramsey County residents can learn about COVID-19 help available from the county and get their questions answered at a series of COVID-19 Community Virtual Town Halls this month. The COVID-19 Racial Equity and Community Engagement Response Team will host a series of six online community town halls spotlighting financial assistance, social services, veterans services, public health, community corrections, and housing stability.
Each COVID-19 Community Virtual Town Hall will begin with an overview of COVID-19 related county services and then open up for questions and comments. Participants can also send questions in advance via email. The town halls will be held online through Zoom meetings from 4 – 5 p.m. on the topics and dates below. Details on how to access the Zoom meetings are in the links for each of the individual meetings.
