At United Way of Gordon County, the health and safety of our community is a top priority. Like many, we are closely monitoring developments related to COVID-19 and will be following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Georgia Department of Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, AdventHealth Gordon, and local city and county health departments.
Here are some of the actions United Way is taking to help keep our community healthy. We are working with our community partners, schools, and health professionals to provide and share reliable and available resources in the Calhoun-Gordon County community. We are also sharing free and available resources for food.
