As we adjust to working and learning at home, it’s important to stay connected to our colleagues and our community. To help keep us all connected, we are launching the #HumberAtHome series. We want to know about how you are taking care of your well-being right now, how your teams are adding a bit of fun into your interactions, and which resources are helping you.
Here are some examples of what members of the Humber community are doing to bring their community together:

"I would say: Stay inspired. As a freelance musician, this pandemic has given me an unusual amount of interrupted time to work on personal projects. It's made me reflect on how grateful I am for my health and also to reevaluate the things that inspire me to be creative. So long as I am healthy, I am going to do my best to create as much as I can."
