Questions to think about:

  • What things did you do, or how did you spend your day, before COVID?
  • What are you NOT doing now that you were doing before?
  • Why aren’t you doing those things?
  • If you are doing some things in the community, what information has helped you get back out there?
  • If you are not doing things in the community, what is keeping you from doing those things?
  • What information may help you feel more comfortable in the community?
  • Who would you like to support you to think about getting back out into the community?
