@MCPS Please give us a 10-day incubation period. Do not put us or our children at an unnecessary risk. You paid millions of tax dollars to give access to virtual options, use them.

Healing our country is critical, but uniting our country happens not through rushing to forgive and forget an act of domestic terrorism. It happens through utilizing the constitutional powers granted to us by the Founders to protect our democracy.

How can outpatient, home health, and school occupational therapists/healthcare workers get signed up for the vaccine? I’m not seeing any information on how to get it if you don’t work for a hospital system or the government..

BREAKING NEWS: Today, Congress passed S. 2661, the National Suicide Hotline Designation Act, creating a nationwide 3-digit number (9-8-8) for suicide prevention & mental health crisis. This bill now goes to the President’s desk. Thank you to all advocates who said #988cantwait!

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

#DYK that an American life is lost by suicide approx. every 11 mins?

As we mark National #SuicidePrevention Week (& Month), join me in starting the dialogue with your loved ones today. No one should ever be afraid to seek help.

Call @800273TALK to get support 24/7/365. #SPM20

988 is the new, 3-digit nationwide number to speak with suicide prevention & mental health crisis counselors. As a provider of permanent supportive housing to people who are homeless living with a mental disability, we are thrilled for this change! #endhomelessness #mentalhealth

@MMR_OTD 😩 right. It will work out though. You’re an amazing OT!

[Heather Parsons @HParsonsAOTA]

CMS recognized OT's crucial role in home health! They are allowing OTs to perform initial & comprehensive assessments for all home health patients with therapy as part of plan of care under an emergency waiver. Huge advocacy win! https://t.co/hDoyZssdMg @AOTAInc @AOTAregulatory

Please don’t let @usedgov strip away access to education! @BetsyDeVosED can weaken students' IDEA rights in the Coronavirus Aid bill by recommending waivers that allow schools to opt-out of providing education to students with disabilities. #NotThatIDEA

BREAKING: Thanks to Trump and cruel new rules, 3.7 million to lose SNAP benefits. 1 million kids to lose free school lunch.

They need it. They will skip meals without it. https://t.co/H33Ti7EDW8

Happy International Day of Persons With Disabilities! #InclusionMatters #IDPD Remember, you don’t need to have a disability to advocate for disability rights #EqualityForAll

[Mind @MindCharity]

Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities. Lots of people don't realise their mental health problem qualifies as a disability under The Equality Act, which gives them legal rights and protections. We're here to set the record straight. #IDPD> https://t.co/LCsgSsH7PK
