How to Help:
The Houston Health Department wants to help slow down the spread of COVID-19. They want you to use social distancing, which means staying away from groups of 10 or more if you will be in close contact with others.
It is important that we all slow down the spread of COVID-19. If you want to help, you should contact one of the organizations on this list instead of helping in-person.
If you have supplies to give, please send an email message to [email protected].
You can visit Houston’s COVID-19 website at HoustonEmergency.org/COVID19 for updated information. That site has information about risks and the things you can do to stay safe. The page also shares answers to common questions and rumors. There are also resources to share risk information, tips to help you be ready for emergencies like COVID-19, and more.
