ACL's COVID-19 Resources:  What's new

We are continuing to add guidance and resources for the aging and disability networks and the people we serve to our COVID-19 resource page<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDEsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMDAzMjYuMTkzNDE4MTEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2FjbC5nb3YvQ09WSUQtMTkifQ.F3Yorvy_VlP72pcEfllnukc6taRDQskk2jykXiBAG90/br/76660948431-l>.

One key update: We have added more details about who is at increased risk of serious illness from COVID-19, based on the latest information from CDC.

Many of the best resources are coming from our networks and partners - thank you! Things we have added in the last few days include:

  *   Resources for supporting caregivers from the Family Caregiver Alliance, ARCH Respite Network and Resource Center, Generations United, and the Caregiver Action Network.
  *   Strategies for supporting individuals with autism through difficult times from the National Professional Development Center on Autism Spectrum Disorder at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
  *   An emergency communication tool for people who do not use verbal communication from the Temple University Institute on Disabilities.
  *   Tips to help first responders support older adults and people with disabilities developed by the University of New Mexico Center for Development and Disability.

We also have added:

  *   Clarification on eligibility requirements for home-delivered meals through the Older Americans Act nutrition programs.
  *   More on avoiding and reporting scams and fraud, including new resources from the Senior Medicare Patrol Resource Center.
  *   Contact information for SAMHSA's Disaster Distress Helpline which provides 24/7 crisis counseling and support to people experiencing disaster-related emotional distress.
  *   Medicaid-specific telehealth information from Medicaid.gov.

Thank you to everyone who has shared resources and offered feedback on the page.
