National PTA Launches Webpage to Support Families and Educators During COVID-19 Crisis
ALEXANDRIA, Va., (March 24, 2020)—National PTA launched a comprehensive webpage today, which features resources, tools and information to support families and educators amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Located at PTA.org/COVID-19, the goal is to help communities navigate the emerging challenges the pandemic has presented, while meeting the educational and social and emotional needs of all students, educators and families.
“While our utmost priority during this crisis is the health and safety of all students, educators, staff and families, we are also committed to making sure our communities have what they need during this challenging time,” said Leslie Boggs, president of National PTA. “Our nation’s families and educators have many questions and concerns, and we hope the information and resources on this webpage help them navigate this crisis.”
COVID-19 has and will continue to have a significant impact on K-12 education and on the communities PTAs serve. Among the many resources available at PTA.org/COVID-19 are guides for families on social and emotional support, learning at home and healthy habits; and resources for educators on teaching from home, supporting their students and selfcare.
The webpage also links to resources from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and U.S. Department of Education and provides information on how to talk to children about COVID-19, what is being done to support equitable access to the internet for student learning and to ensure vulnerable youth have access to school meals, and what legislative action Congress is taking regarding COVID-19.
National PTA is also calling on Congress to take swift, bipartisan action to provide fiscal and policy relief to state and local education agencies. In advocacy efforts over the last week, the association called on the administration to provide clear and robust guidance for families and schools on critical issues related to COVID-19, including state testing requirements, access and support for online learning, and access to school meals.
“Funding, flexibility, and clear and robust guidance from the federal government is essential to support state and local capacity, address the impact of COVID-19 on our education system and to keep our nation’s students learning and supported,” said Nathan Monell, CAE, National PTA executive director. “National PTA remains committed to supporting and advocating for our nation’s students, families, schools and communities in this time of crisis.”

Coronavirus Relief Package Update
State Presidents and Federal Legislative Chairs,
As you may have seen and/or heard, the Speaker of the House has released a third coronavirus relief package (a counter proposal to Senator McConnell’s bill). In the House proposal there is a provision for an Emergency Connectivity Fund to provide $2 billion to schools and libraries for Wi-Fi hotspots, connected devices and mobile broadband Internet service to ensure continuity of K-12 learning during this COVID-19 national emergency. National PTA supports this fund and joined fellow education groups on the attached letter that was sent today to House leaders indicating our collective support.
Please know the Government Affairs Department is working hard to ensure federal resources are provided to ensure ALL students have access to the tools, broadband and supports necessary to engage in remote learning during these unprecedent times.
I will continue to keep you updated. The letter will be up soon on our letters to policymakers page under Education Technology and Student Data Privacy
Please feel free to share as appropriate throughout your networks.
Thanks,
Jacki

Update on COVID-19 Legislation
Keeping all PTA members informed. #FactsMatter #KnowledgeIsPower
Below is a summary of the three COVID-19 legislative relief packages either passed or currently being negotiated by Congress. The summaries focus on relevant education related provisions included in the bills. Please share among your networks as appropriate.
National PTA is engaged in, and closely monitoring the details of the third legislative package. Specifically, we are focused on ensuring that federal resources are able to quickly get to states and school districts, including dedicated resources to support distance learning, and that there are appropriate flexibilities provided, however we are opposed to broad waivers that raise significant equity and civil rights concerns.
Right now, negotiations are ongoing many provisions in the bill including those related to distance learning in the third package. More details to come as we learn them.
COVID-19 Relief Package #3: Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act)
PLEASE NOTE: The contents of this bill are fluid. As we receive more concrete information, we will share it with you.
Latest Action: Procedural vote in Senate on 3/22 failed. Negotiations are ongoing.
Summary: The most recent plan would provide $20 billion to the Education Department to help states, schools and colleges with unprecedented disruption of every level of education across the country.
The grants to states would be determined by population and controlled by governors, who would have to allocate money to school districts or colleges that have been “most significantly impacted by coronavirus.”
The Education Department would also provide some funding directly to school districts based on the share of low-income students. That money could be used for a wide range of purposes, including training and professional development, distance learning, purchasing supplies to sanitize schools and planning for long-term school closures.
There is $25 million for “Distance Learning, Telemedicine, and Broadband Program” in the current proposal. National PTA is pushing for a much larger amount of funding for K-12 distance learning.
A previous iteration of the bill would have provided broad wavier authority to Secretary DeVos to waive any provision of the main federal laws governing higher education, K-12 education and career and technical education. However, under the new proposal, the Education Department would be allowed to waive only certain provisions of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), including those dealing with required assessments, state education plans and the allocation of funding. There is a provision in the bill that would allow the Education Department to make legislative recommendations on any additional waivers that need to be enacted into law under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
Again, please note that the contents of this bill are fluid. As we receive more concrete information, we will share it with you.
COVID-19 Relief Package #2: The Families First Coronavirus Response Act
Latest Action: Signed into law on March 18, 2020.
Summary: The second COVID-19 relief package, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (H.R.6201), would provide $1 billion in nutritional aid, expand access to COVID-19 testing and expand sick leave benefits. Relevant education- and workforce-related provisions include:
$500 million for the Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).
$400 million for the Commodity Assistance program.
Emergency Supplemental Nutrition Assistant Program (SNAP) benefits for families with at least one child who would be receiving free and reduced-price meals and whose school has been closed for at least 5 consecutive days.
$160 million for home delivered meals.
$80 million for the Congregate Nutrition Services program under the Older Americans Act.
$400 million for the Commodity Assistance program.
Emergency Supplemental Nutrition Assistant Program (SNAP) benefits for families with at least one child who would be receiving free and reduced-price meals and whose school has been closed for at least 5 consecutive days.
$160 million for home delivered meals.
$80 million for the Congregate Nutrition Services program under the Older Americans Act.
Providing the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) with authority to grant waivers (until September 30, 2020):
Of statutory and regulatory provisions under the Child Nutrition and School Lunch Acts in order to provide meals and meal supplements in the event of school closures due to COVID-19;
Of provisions in the School Lunch Act which prevent increased Federal costs when implementing summer food service programs;
To States for the purposes of providing meals and meal supplements in a manner that provides appropriate safety measures. These waivers would be automatically applied to States that seek them without further application by the State;
To provide non-congregate feeding under the Child and Adult Care Food program, if the waivers are connected to COVID-19;
Of requirements regarding the nutritional content of meals, if the waivers are connected to COVID-19;
Of administrative requirements under WIC for States, if the waivers are connected to COVID-19; and
Of the physical presence requirement at the time of WIC certification (current law requires WIC recipients to be physically present when they are certified for benefits). Anthropometric and bloodwork requirements would also be allowed to be waived.

Providing an expansion of the Family and Medical Leave Act to provide:
Paid leave, connected to a public health emergency related to COVID-19, to employees at organizations with fewer than 500 total employees to care for a child if childcare is unavailable. Employees would have to be employed for at least 30 days by their employer and the U.S. Secretary of Labor would be empowered to grant hardship exemptions for certain businesses with fewer than 50 employees and to exclude certain health care providers and emergency responders.
The first 10 days of such leave may consist of unpaid leave, with employees being able to substitute vacation, paid leave or sick leave for unpaid leave. Employers are required to provide paid leave for leave days after such initial 10-day period. The amount of pay is required to be at least 2/3rds of the pay an employee would receive based on an employee’s normally scheduled hours of work. Paid leave would not have to exceed $200 per day or $10,000 in the aggregate.

CSWMT BOARD AND
LINKS
The CSWMFT Board is working with Governor Mike
DeWine’s office as well as other State agencies on an emergency rule that will
provide flexibility for licensees who are seeking to provide teletherapy. We
anticipate the proposed rule will be issued soon and will align with the
rules being proposed by the Ohio Depart of Medicaid and Ohio Department of
Mental Health and Addiction Services. Once the rule is issued, we will provide
an update and additional guidance.
Licensees who want to prepare for providing
teletherapy would be advised to review guidance from the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services regarding HIPAA. You can find the guidance at https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/special-topics/emergency-preparedness/notification-enforcement-discretion-telehealth/index.html.

FREE BROADBAND
Here is information related to helping families get free broadband
for the next two months. To utilize the links, you’ll need to hit control
and click the link or right click and then use the open hyperlink option.
Thanks.
Cable giant Charter Communications will
provide free broadband for two months to households with students, as a number
of U.S. schools are shutting down because of concerns about the coronavirus (COVID-19)
pandemic.
Starting next Monday (March 16), Charter will offer free Spectrum
broadband and Wi-Fi access for 60 days to households with K-12 and/or college
students — which do not already have a Spectrum broadband subscription — at any
service level up to 100 megabits per second.
The move follows Comcast’s announcement
that it would extend free broadband to low-income
families, also for a 60-day period, starting next week, and will boost speeds
of the service tier (regularly $9.95 per month).
To enroll in Charter’s free-broadband program, eligible consumers
must call (844) 488-8395. The company said it will waive installation fees for
new student households. Charter said it will partner with school districts “to
ensure local communities are aware of these tools to help students learn
remotely.” In addition, the operator will open its Wi-Fi hotspots across its
footprint for public use, free of charge.
For eligible low-income households without school-age children,
Charter continues to offer Spectrum
Internet Assist, a low-cost broadband program that provides
speeds of up 30 Mbps.
“As the country works collaboratively to contain this pandemic,
broadband internet access will be increasingly essential to ensuring that
people across the country are able to learn and work remotely, that businesses
can continue to serve customers, and that Americans stay connected and engaged
with family and friends,” Charter said in a statement.
Charter has about 29 million customers across a 41-state
footprint. The cable operator noted that it does not impose data caps or usage
surcharges on broadband service.

HEAD START (CATHOLIC CHARITIES)
I
am reaching out to inform you about immediate measures of caution that
are taken by Cleveland Diocese of Catholic Charities. Due to the current situation with the coronavirus, Catholic
Charities has made the decision to not allow any external providers to enter
our sites to provide services. This decision is effective
immediately. I apologize for the interruption in services but we are
doing this preventive measure for the safety of our children, staff and
families. I will keep you informed going forward. Effective at this
time, all Head Start centers are closed at least until April 3, 2020 until
further notice and this time may extend depending on actions by our State
Representatives and Federal Government Regulations. I am available to assist
with further questions. My cell phone (440) 503-1217 is available at all
times.
Thank
you,

Please find attached the list of
CMSD schools offering school meals during the school closure period. Per
CEO Gordon, CMSD will offer a meal pick-up program at 22 PreK-8 sites across
the city. At these meal pick-up locations, students will be able to
pick-up two meals (a breakfast and lunch) and instructional enrichment materials
to keep them engaged in learning during the closure period.
- These schools will be serving meals
Monday through Friday, from 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
- Children 18 and younger can pick up a
grab & go lunch along with breakfast for the following day, and the
service is open to all children, regardless
of where they go to school—public, parochial, chart and private schools in
Cleveland
- CMSD will provide shuttle bus service to these 22
schools for all other CMSD PreK-8 buildings, allowing families the ability
to walk to the closest school to access the shuttle.
- RTA
bus passes for all students will remain active so that students can move
around the city as needed.
If I can be of assistance, please
don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you as always for your kindest consideration
in advance. Stay safe and well!

MEDICADE RENEWALS
Due
to the high demand of Ohioans applying for Medicaid, the Ohio Department of
Medicaid has issued guidance that county Job and Family Service agencies stop
processing Medicaid renewals at this time. Medicaid coverage will not be
lost because the renewal process was not able to be completed.
Cuyahoga
Job and Family Services is working to process as many new Medicaid applications
as possible each day to ensure residents have medical coverage.
Further
communication will be made available in the coming weeks as this health
emergency stabilizes.
We
ask that you assist us in communicating this message in the community.
If
you have any questions or concerns please contact the Office of Community
Engagement at community_outreach@jfs.ohio.gov.
Thank
you for your support and assistance.
MEDICATION
Over the
past few days, my email has been inundated with many questions about getting
our clients their medications. I am hopeful that this email will assist you in
guiding your clients, and also reassure you that I am diligently working to get
them their prescriptions. Monday-Wednesdays clients all had their medications
hand delivered by me to their selected pharmacies. Moving forward, here is all
the information I can share:
- THIS ONE IS IMPORTANT,
PLEASE READ: All controlled substances will be sent to Genoa pharmacy.
They have a courier service that will deliver the controlled substance
directly to the clients home. As providers, please make sure the phone
numbers and addresses are correct for your clients in Credible!! The pharmacy
will call the client to set up a drop off window and someone can sign for
it when it arrives. It is simply to much for me to hand deliver all these
prescriptions all over the city, and this seemed to make the most sense. I
will be dropping of prescriptions here two to three days weekly.
- All non-controlled
substances will be sent directly to the clients pharmacy of choice
- The pharmacies are VERY
busy right now, and most of them are backed up a day or so, so please
reassure your clients that the pharmacists are doing their best to
accommodate everyone during this time.
- If you have a client
that needs medication, email me their information, and please verify the
pharmacy they would like it sent to!! It would also be helpful to let your
clients know that there is one of me, and hundreds of them, so it may take
a day before it gets sent.
- Clients can continue to
call our outpatient number 216-862-4664 and leave a message. Brenda will
get back to them within 24 hours to address their questions or
concerns.
- Brenda will continue to
check ITP's per usual, and if they do not have a current one, I will not
be able to do any telemedicine with them. This does not mean they can not
get medication, just follow the previous bullet points to let me know what
they need.
- If you can, please
stress to the parents that a quick check in with me is important during
these times. Parents keep telling Brenda that they want meds, but do not
want to give me an update on how the client is doing. We are all in the
same boat, and this is hard. But for the safety of the patient, it would
be helpful to have a brief update!!
- If a patient needs a
telemedicine appointment, call Brenda's number and she will schedule them
with me for next week on either Tuesday or Thursday. If they are an initial
visit, and really need to be seen, they have to agree to do a phone call
with me, as I need to do a full assessment before I am willing to
prescribe.
- When a parent contacts
you, please ask how much medicine they have left, if it is a few days, let
me know so I can get the refill done ASAP, if it is a week or more it will
not be top priority.
