A message from our CEO (Cont)
With travel plans on pause, we’ve modified some of our work to respond quickly to realities faced by our colleagues and partners, such as helping procure personal protective equipment needed to keep our partners safe and seeking out new resources for our partners responding to the COVID-19 pandemic in their local communities.
As an organization operating with a global perspective, we are continually engaging with our partners as the situation evolves. Over the coming months, we will leverage practices and technology we’ve been refining over the past several years to provide distance learning, including online training and tele-mentoring.
Thank you for your belief in our work. Stay safe and stay well.
James E. (Jamie) Morgan, CEO
and the entire team at Physicians for Peace
