Good Morning Donlon Fam,
I’m reaching out to extend support on behalf of the Donlon Team to those who are feeling hurt, pained & pissed-off by the recent rounds of LGBTQIA+, Anti-Asian, and other hate related crimes and violence seen in the news.
Just reminding you all that the RA Team, FIR Jed, Kim, community fellows and I, are here if anyone wants to process, grab a meal and/or go for a walk.
To schedule a meeting with me you can use this link: https://calendly.com/cv247.
