Description

This Training is funded through the Mecklenburg County Health Department (MCHD) Health Literacy and COVID-19 Plan, a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health (OMH) grant initiative.

COVID-19 has changed all of us in one way or another. We've lost friends, family members, and loved ones. We've missed out on fun experiences and socialization. Through all of these things, we also had to deal with sickness and isolation. Some of us will now have to battle Long COVID and the Mental Health struggles that come with this chronic, longwinded diagnosis. Learn about the correlations and connections between Long COVID and Mental Health by taking this one-hour, self-paced, online module.
