Due to the State of Emergency declared by Dutchess and other counties, all Literacy Connections activities and programs have been suspended through March 27, 2020. Physical distancing is a necessary step to stop the spread of the virus and to protect those whose health is vulnerable, but keeping friendships alive is as important now as ever. We encourage all of our volunteers, students, and friends to stay home as much as possible, and check in with each other on the phone or on video chat.
