Our team is working to understand problems facing older adults and caregivers during the pandemic. How might we make things better for them? Better support systems, improving mental/physical health, access to services, educating about tech? Do you have a story or idea to share?

As of today, the OKC metro (Oklahoma, Canadian & Cleveland counties) has 144 confirmed cases of COVID-19 & five deaths.
