ADL OPPORTUNITIES AND RESOURCES | |
|
For most of us, the most critical contribution we can make during the COVID-19 outbreak is to remain at home. However, for countless trained helpers, it is a busy time fighting to support those who are ill, conducting critical research, responding to emergencies, and serving our most vulnerable communities.
Please join ADL in showing these individuals our gratitude and support. Click here to share your message of thanks and appreciation for the COVID-19 frontline workers, including but not limited to: community service workers, first responders, healthcare workers, law enforcement officials, scientists, and all other essential service workers and helpers assisting our communities.
