Coronavirus Las Vegas

(We will update this page regularly)

Over the last few weeks, Equality Nevada has been closely monitoring guidance from federal, state and local public health officials regarding COVID-19 (or “novel coronavirus”).

In times of uncertainty, it is important to remember the shared values — community, belonging, respect — that bind us together. Our community is not unfamiliar with the phenomena of stigma and epidemics. We have to remember what HIV/AIDS taught us about taking care of each other in a climate of fear and real risk. We will provide you with additional updates and resources on this page as we receive them.

We will navigate through this challenging time, together.
