SBYD Resources for Kids/Families

Various members of Sport for Good have worked to form a Chicago COVID Response Task Force with the three primary goals of collecting centralized information & needs, aggregating centralized resources, and running connection webinars. Please see below for a list of aggregate resources that you can share with kids/families in your program. We have additional sheets focused on Workers/Employment and Organizations/Executives. ​ ​ ​ ​
