COVID-19 Information and Resources

In the interest of archiving a chronological list of available resources for our members, MASA and MASE are collaborating to provide resource pages online.  We will post information as we receive it, in chronological order with most recent information first.  We will monitor the situation continuously and update this information as we receive it.  Please contact the MASA/MASE team if you have questions or concerns.

You can check the situation updates by state by clicking here.
