For three years, the pandemic response has taken our attention and resources. We can’t forget there are other disasters that need our focus.

REMEMBER, RECHARGE, and RECONNECT
“Learn from the past, prepare for the future, live in the present.”

What health care workers experienced over the last two years will be talked about for generations to come. We suffered professional and personal losses, pushed ourselves beyond our limits, and learned more than we ever expected. Fortunately, one of our greatest strengths is resiliency. Through it all, we strengthened ties with our colleagues, communities, and families.
