Social distancing and quarantining can lead to feelings of isolation or loneliness. But there are plenty of ways to get involved and stay connected. Always remember, we are never alone!<\/span><\/p>\n

On a personal note, I am doing well – Due to COVID-19 in the surrounding area, I am working remotely for my position in Human Resources at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.\u00a0 I am in the midst of the 5th week of working remotely, and while I miss my coworkers, I am very grateful for the safety and opportunity to be able to work remotely during this time.\u00a0 I am keeping busy and doing my best to stay safe, due to several underlying health conditions putting me at a higher risk during this time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please feel free to post comments on this post, to share stories of how you are doing.\u00a0 We would love to get a conversation going and we would love to hear from you!<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n
