On Tuesday, May 18th, the week of Bike to Work Day, join DPW&T and M-NCPPC at 12 Noon for a free webinar on Commuting by Bike: How to Ride Safely in Traffic, on Roadways and Trails.

Coping with Loss and Grief: This workshop will approach the difficult topics of loss and grief, especially in the context of COVID-19. We will explore what grief and loss look like, what they can feel like, and what the process is like for many people. Participants will be introduced to tools and strategies that can be helpful in processing grief. To not end on a heavy note, we will close the workshop with a gratitude practice in community with each other.

Bike to Work Day is celebrating its 20th anniversary in our region on May 21, 2021! This free national event is held each May during National Bike Month to promote bicycling as a form of transportation and as a great way to improve health and wellness. Whether commuting to the office or working from home, residents, employees and visitors can register at https://www.biketoworkmetrodc.org/ or http://bit.ly/dcbtwd2021.

Wednesday, May 26th 10am-12pm Centering Joy, Advocacy, and Creativity in Support of Mental Health • The last workshop of the session will encourage participants to tap into their own expression and creativity in support of their own self-care and mental health. We will also explore what advocacy for mental health looks like for ourselves and for others, explore how art and creativity can be used as a form or advocacy in public spaces. • For this workshop, I was thinking it would be great if we could mail participants "workshop kits" ahead of time that would include construction paper/colored pencils/markers etc. So that everyone could engage in the activity together with the same tools. For this purpose, would it be possible to gather addresses from participants ahead of time?

All county offices are closed in observance of Memorial Day (except public safety agencies). Several county services are also suspended or closed.
