This is one of the pages we made at the beginning of the COVID-19 lockdown. We are leaving it here in case anyone comes back here to find something they found here before. Some of the information may be out of date -- share with caution.
Here you will find video, graphic and ASL information about COVID-19 that you can share with learners and post on social media. Get in touch with christine@alphaplus.ca if you would like us to add something.
