This video addresses mental health and self care during this difficult time

The Champaign County Joint Information Center has been regularly putting out videos to address specific concerns related to COVID-19.

With the stress of everything that’s happening right now, it’s important to think about our mental health as well as our physical health. In this video offering, Kris Koester from the City of Champaign chats with Dr. Tara Powell from the School of Social Work.

You can find all of the public outreach videos on the Champaign-Urbana Public Health District website. For all COVID-19 information related to Champaign County, check out this coronavirus response site
 
The School of Social Work is hosting a webinar this Friday, April 24th from 12 to 1 p.m. It’s free and open to anyone, but you need to register here to get the Zoom link. The webinar will feature Dr. Powell and will focus on self-care, preventing burn out, and compassion fatigue, particularly for those in “helping” professions or roles.
