Highland Park Neighbors,
We must remain resilient, we must stay strong, and we must remember we are all in this together. We will get through this and it will be because of each and everyone of you that is practicing social distancing, practicing good hygiene measures, and staying safer at home.
Last week, Councilmember Gil Cedillo provided our NC with cloth masks donated by the Garment workers which were then distributed to the three clinics in Highland Park (NECC, AVFHC, CCHC). Team Cedillo is going throughout the communities in CD1 distributing as many cloth masks as possible. However, if you cannot make or get a cloth mask, you can also wear a bandana or a scarf instead.
The Mayor announced this week that face coverings are now recommended when we are out in public. However, please use non-medical grade masks or facial coverings in order to allow our frontline healthcare workers to use the current supply of N95 masks and face shields
.

up to a $10,000 Advance on an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL)
. This This
Advance
may be available even if your
EIDL
application was declined or is still pending, and
will be forgiven.
as soon as possible to fill out a new, streamlined application. In order to qualify for the Advance, you need to submit this new application even if you previously submitted an EIDL application. Applying for the Advance will not impact the status or slow your existing application.
