As such, we are in constant communication with our community partners on how to respond to the threat of COVID-19 and its potential impacts.
At The Harvest Foundation, we’ve taken additional steps and protocols to keep our offices clean and to prevent the spread of germs within the building. Below are recommendations by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that include:- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Stay home when you are sick.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
