Healthy ԭ Together has issued a call for personal stories and perspectives — in the form of short videos — about the importance of COVID-19 prevention measures, the Healthy ԭ Together project and why individual actions are so important.

The city-UC ԭ partnership, which provides free asymptomatic testing to anyone who lives or works in ԭ and their immediate households, aims to share people’s testimonials on Healthy ԭ Together social media and website and potentially in advertisements. Participants are encouraged to post to their own social media channels, as well.
Submissions are welcome from residents of ԭ and the surrounding community
“Storytelling is powerful and can move people to action,” organizers with said. “We all have personal stories about the pandemic and its impact — and we’d like your help in sharing stories that promote individual and community health and well-being.”
Healthy ԭ Together has prepared two PDFs for people interested in participating:
- Community Testimonial Toolkit (includes an overview and information on how to submit)
- Best Practices for Filming
