Face coverings are one of the most effective ways to slow the spread of #covid19. In #AlamedaCounty, masks are required at all times when out in public, even when exercising or with your social bubble. By doing our part to wear face masks, maintain a safe distance from others (6 ft. or more), practice safe hygiene, we can keep each other safe and healthy and slow the spread of COVID-19 in our community. #maskontomoveon

Alameda County to give stipends to some coronavirus victims

Last week, the Board of Supervisors unanimously allocated $10 million to create a pilot program to provide stipends to eligible #AlamedaCounty residents who have tested positive for #COVID19 and do not have paid sick leave or unemployment benefits.

Without this safety net, COVID-positive workers who cannot afford the lost wages are forced to choose between making ends meet or sheltering in place to self-quarantine. With this $1,250 stipend, Alameda County aims to stop the spread of COVID-19 by allowing workers to recover safely at home.

The program is in development and will target the hardest hit neighborhoods in Alameda County. Eligible residents will need a referral from contracted community health clinics. Additional details will be shared once the program begins.

The program will provide $1,250 to eligible participants

08/05/2020

Low-income #renters in #AlamedaCounty who have been impacted by #covid19 may be eligible for emergency rental assistance from ECHO Housing!
