Description
COVID Rapid Response Team-Chicago aims to connect, amplify, and serve as a vehicle of local efforts to address key COVID-19 crisis points in the Chicagoland area. We are a collective of independent community members, healthcare students, and clinicians connecting the various front lines of the COVID crisis to our communities’ resources. We aim to support sustainable, organized, safe, and thoughtful support of local community efforts to support survival during the COVID crisis. We offer our resources, skills, and time to scale-up critical life-sustaining services to marginalized communities in Chicago during the COVID crisis.
