COVID-19 and Social Media: Best Practices to Reach Your Communities
Social media has become a go-to source for COVID-19 news, and while these platforms can be useful to share helpful guidance, they can also spread misinformation that harms communities.

During this 60 minute interactive webinar, experts answered the most pressing questions on effective social media communication strategies and shared best practices for leveraging social media in your community — especially with limited resources and small budgets.
