 Leif Taranta | YES, we are a network of students organizing mutual aid (and maybe some defense), and no, we do not have a formal name yet (formerly called Intercollege Mutual Aid Network). TODAY 04/05 7-8pm EST is our next FULL NETWORK CALL. We will hear from our affinity groups (the people you work with the closest) and building up some ORGANIZING SKILLS including a workshop on organizing conversations (or 1:1s), and breakout groups to practice how we tell our personal stories in ways that bring people into our group (Story of Self). We are here, and building a radical, loving and BADASS group of organizers and compas! Join us here:

 Rara Reines | Hi everyone! I am part of an effort to map community resources around the U.S. including homeless shelters, food banks, healthcare, mutual aid, and student networks: http://bit.ly/COVID19resourcemapping
We are working on a press release currently and I am reaching out to folks for quotes - would anyone here be interested in providing 1-2 sentences on how you might use the map, what impact you think it will have, etc.? Please direct message if so! Thank you! | 17:54:26 |

| @l4nd_53r:matrix.org | hello is this active? | 19:20:26 |
| @l4nd_53r:matrix.org | Im a Security Enforcement Officer for a Private owned Facility Used by Department of Social Serivces for Emergency Housing and Semi-Permenant Housing for the homeless we Specifically house Woman and Familys many over the age of 55 with Health Problems they allso send us Woman with Mental instabilitys. We are understaffed for Security Officers for the amount of people we house we are not paid hazard pay and our employer the owner of the Motel that was converted to a Homeless shelter has given staff one bottle of sanitizer and one pack of 5 surgical masks since the beginning of this out break. the security officers are not equipped we provide all our own pritective and defensive gear and allso pay for our own training classes to maintain our security licenses we are located on Long Island in New York. Who do I have to go to to get help for us here | 19:24:48 |
| @l4nd_53r:matrix.org | or is this one of those things where when you get paid 14 dollars an hour to put my life and my familys life at risk i should quit and not go in? | 19:26:06 |
 Karl Semich | I always recommend doing what is best for you and your community first. This chat isn't too active: most of the activity is at https://forms.gle/WoC8hBCtXtNWQ7zd6 I think. If you can keep a nurturing mindset there are likely some groups in your area that can help. I googled quickly and found the "Long Island Mutual Aid for COVID-19" facebook group that probably has people who would enjoy organizing around the situation in your area https://www.facebook.com/groups/306512853645979 | 19:33:03 |

| Lexie Stetson-Lee | Can anyone send suggestions for cash dispersal? We're looking into fundraising platforms and person-to-person payments for our rural region in Southwest Colorado. Trying to figure out the logistics/ethics of cash dispersement especially if we are limited with dollars. Any suggestions would be much appreciated! | 23:28:54 |
