STAY AT HOME = STAY SAFE

Our vulnerable and health compromised individuals needs your help. We are pleading with community members to take the shelter at home order seriously. If you are not a resident of a certain home or do not have an essential purpose to be in the home, you should not be in the home.  Please call and check on elders or others that may need assistance.     STAY HOME

  • Ø Only socialize with your family members that live with you.  This absolutely includes not letting your children play or be in contact with other children (even relatives) that do not live in the same household, both indoors and outdoors. (including Playground Equipment and Playing Basket Ball-close contact)

 

  • Ø Minimize travel and designate one family to run essential errands (shopping and appointments, etc.).
  • Ø Remember you may not have the symptoms but can be passing the virus to others. These practices will minimize the spread of the virus. 
  • Ø  Shelter-At-Home declaration guidelines, daily updates and other resources can be found at   LDFTribe.com
