NCAO Message regarding COVID-19 (Coronavirus)
On behalf of the National Cambodian American Organization (NCAO), we hope that you and your families are safe and healthy amidst the concerns and uncertainty around our communities and across the world regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. First and foremost, NCAO Board of Directors and Advisory Board would like to thank our front-line health care workers, public health staff, local community-based organizations, faith-based organizations and volunteers who are risking their lives working at the forefront and/or behind the scenes to deliver health care and social support services to keep our communities safe and healthy. We send our deepest condolences to all who have lost loved ones due to the virus, and keep in our thoughts those diagnosed with COVID-19 and their families, with hope that they recover very soon.
During these difficult times, many Cambodian Americans living here and abroad are facing hardships, especially our elders who are especially vulnerable of contracting the coronavirus. Many in our communities feel anxious, and may not know where to turn to for local resources, experiencing emotional strain as family members and/or friends are impacted by this pandemic. Our children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews have lost the safety net of their classrooms, teachers, and friends as they transition to remote education via distance learning. As individuals of color, Cambodian Americans bear the added burden of facing stigma and encountering the fears of racist remarks and acts due to hateful rhetoric around the origin of this coronavirus, despite the fact that this is a worldwide public health emergency that impact individuals of all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, and socioeconomic status.
Cambodian American communities embody resilience and tenacity. In these unprecedented times, we must leverage our strengths by uniting our voices and efforts, working collaboratively with our communities and faith-based organizations, health care and educational systems to overcome this pandemic. We would like to take this opportunity to extend our special appreciation to all the Cambodian American leaders who are serving around the clock to provide support to our community members while taking care of their own families and staff.
As the need for COVID-19 resources among our Cambodian American communities continues to grow, we would like to provide you with some COVID-19 related community resources offered by the government and various organizations. Together, let us promote safe and healthy habits throughout the challenging days ahead to reduce the spread of coronavirus. As Cambodian Americans, we can help protect the lives of people in the U.S. and across the globe. We wish you and your families love, light, and health as we begin the 2020 Cambodian New Year.
Sincerely,
NCAO Board of Directors & Advisory Board
