Read MoreWhen I did a few posts on COVID-19 back in March, I could never have imagined we’d be where we are now. I hoped we’d flatten the curve, take precautions, see improvement in access to testing and PPE, and we’d have some “normalcy” back in our schedules. While this may vary by your geographic location, I can tell you that not much has changed for my family from those days in March. We are still very strictly social distancing and we do not have childcare for our six year old boy and nine month old baby girl.

Self-employed workers have been hit hard by the pandemic. As organisations scale back and focus on delivering in a work-from-home world, many ‘non-essential’ contracts have been cancelled or indefinitely postponed. While freelancers are used to managing the ebb and flow of work, the drop in demand for consultants is unprecedented and has impacted all of us in one way or another – economically, physically, mentally and socially.

Read MoreEarlier this week I wrote about how public health consultants can help during the COVID-19 crisis. I listed the skills, services, and expertise they bring and offered to match you up with consultants available for hire to provide that support or service.
Today I’m writing to share that many public health consultants are also offering complimentary resources and services at this time.

In the overwhelm, I see some organizations that are struggling to respond to this crisis for a variety of reasons- lack of time, personnel, expertise, etc.

If you or your organization needs any of the services listed, please fill out the form at the bottom of the blog post and I will link you up with consultant/s that are available to provide that service. I am hopeful that this “one stop shop” will make it easier to find one or multiple consultants versus trying to search for individual websites.
