Limitations and disruptions caused by COVID-19 have made everyday tasks even more complicated. The added stress of dealing with new challenges in addition to everyday life can be difficult and sometimes overwhelming. This is true for everyone, including older adults and people who use disability supports and services.

We invite you to join Dr. Karyn Harvey and DHS staff to discuss the psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, ways to cope with stress and uncertainty during the pandemic and how we can help support others.

Karyn has more than 30 years of experience in the intellectual disabilities field and is the author of multiple articles and books. She currently is the director of program development and training for the Park Avenue Group, LLC. She regularly trains on trauma-informed care and positive identity development.
