COVID-19 Resource Page
** A map of Pennsylvania vaccine providers can be found here **
Here we have created a resource page with factual information on COVID-19 and up-to-date recommendations from the CDC and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. As more information becomes available, we will add it to this page. We hope to offer you one-stop for all the critical information and recommendations related to our area. Stay safe and keep washing your hands everyone.
We have joined together to form the Irish Community Relief Effort with our friends at the Irish Center, the IABCN, the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick and the GAA to assist our community during this crisis. For those of you who need food assistance sign up using the link above.
For those who are living alone or are worried about leaving the house to go to the shop, we have a caring community of people who want to be there for you in this difficult time! Give us a call on 610-789 6355 ex 3203 or click on the link below to send a email. Be sure to include your contact information. We will assign one or two members of our community of care to you who will check in on the phone, set up a video chat, or run to the store or pharmacy for you and leave items on your porch.
