for Coronavirus (COVID-19)
We recognize that practices may be overwhelmed with COVID-19, and our projects may not be a priority. We trust you to use your best judgment on balancing the needs of the practice. Practices may choose not to meet with the PTO and focus their energy on preparedness efforts, or they may choose to meet with the PTO for our projects and use coaching to help them prepare.
