Our friends at AnswerConnect are hosting this event geared to providing a space for folks in the community to share what they are doing to cope in the time of Covid. We have four topics, and attendees will rotate into separate breakout rooms, ensuring everyone has an opportunity to discuss all four. The facilitator will document the things people are doing in each of the areas, and we'll provide a resource guide after the session for everyone who attends. The topics are:
How to volunteer (in the current times)
Emotional support: how to handle grief + coping strategies in general
Job discussion: remote work, tips, handling difficulty at work
Self-care: how do you re-invigorate yourself?
Agenda:
5:00 p.m. - Event begins networking
5:05 p.m. - PDXWIT Introduction (5 minutes)
5:15 p.m. - Presentation begins
6:00 p.m. - Event ends
