What's New at
ACL.gov
Thank you to the aging and disability networks for continuing
to share the resources you’re creating for the people we serve. We have
added several of them to our
COVID-19 page on ACL.gov since our last update. Please keep them
coming!
We’ve also updated
information about cleaning and disinfecting surfaces. CDC says
that current evident suggests that the virus is may remain viable on a
variety of surfaces for hours to days. Although transmission of the virus
to people from contaminated surfaces has not been documented, CDC
recommends routine cleaning and disinfecting of high-touch surfaces as a
general precaution.
- HHS expansion of telehealth
options
- Information from the
Department of Education about protecting the civil rights of students
with disabilities
The page now includes the President’s Coronavirus Guidelines
for America, too.
Finally, we have posted these FAQs and fact sheets to address specific
program issues (these also have been sent directly to our
grantees):
- Fact sheet: Emergency
determination under the Stafford Act
- Letter to Directors of
State Units on Aging and FAQ: Presumptive Waiver Approval for Meals
Programs
- FAQs for Adult Protective
Services and Legal Assistance Programs
We also are continuing to tweak the page
to make things easier to find. Please let us know
if you have any suggestions!
