We need to hear from you.
Today during our spring member drive, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. The local news you read here every day is crafted for you, but right now, we need your help to keep it going. In these uncertain times, your support is even more important. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership. Thank you.

We are social creatures. So it's no surprise that quarantine fatigue has begun to set in, even as experts caution that social distancing recommendations will remain in place for months to come. (With a vaccine even further away.)

Here are quick tips to lessen the isolation you may be feeling:

  1. Don't scroll, but do connect online, with real-time activities
  2. Making art is a social act: express yourself and share
  3. Reach out to the elderly
  4. Become a citizen-scholar, an online tutor or assistant to the visually impaired: Find your way to volunteer, virtually
  5. Keep friendships alive, with small acts of kindness
