Greetings,

I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe as we continue to work together and do everything that we can to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

I recently attended the Board of Directors meeting for the Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce and presented a PowerPoint presentation on the efforts Dallas County is taking to support our communities during this ongoing crisis.

I wanted to share this PowerPoint presentation with you all so you are aware of the work that is being done to keep our communities safe as well as some very helpful information regarding the current status and cases of the COVID-19 virus.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and lets continue to practice social distancing, wash our hands, and stay safe!

Saludos,

Elba Garcia
