The conversation has shifted. What are your questions?

With the Governor’s stay-at-home order becoming a “safer-at-home” order, how will local public health officials, businesses, and citizens find a balance between getting back to work and keeping people safe?

This week’s panel includes:

Joni Reynolds, Gunnison County Director of Health and Human Services.
Jonathon Houck, Chair of the Gunnison Board of County Commissioners.
Cathie Pagano, One Valley Leadership Council, Gunnison County Director of Community Development.
Darcie Perkins, Assistant Director for the ICElab at Western, Industry Group Recovery Coordinator.
