Join us for TPT NOW’s COVID-19 Virtual Convening as we work together with Minnesota’s Black, Indigenous, Hmong, Somali, and Latinx communities to understand what information and resources might be helpful to our communities recover from COVID-19. The community conversation will be guided by our panelists and participants and topics may include mental well-being, COVID-19 prevention, and long term recovery strategies.
The 2-hour convening, which will be held via Zoom with TPT NOW stakeholders and simultaneously livestreamed via Facebook, will inform new content being developed for TPT NOW’s fall COVID-19 programming. The convening will include a thoughtful panel discussion, breakout sessions, and a chance for the broader community to provide input via a Facebook livestream and chat.
