"Gentle On My Mind: Navigating a New Normal"

Today, we’re all experiencing a new normal, living in isolation, with the comforting routines of our daily lives deeply disrupted. It’s a situation that Kim and her daughter Ashley know far too well: their worlds changed in an instant when their husband and father, Glen, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Like all of us navigating the new normal with COVID-19, they had no mental preparation and quickly had to adapt to daunting challenges. In this webinar, Kim and Ashley share their perspectives on being caregivers, including:

  • How to manage guilt, frustration and anxiety
  • Why you have to take care of yourself first
  • Dealing with small daily changes
  • Dealing with life altering changes
  • How to ask for help

SPECIAL BONUS: After audience Q&A, Ashley Campbell performs her heartfelt song, “Remembering,” written for her father.

"Tech and the Great Lockdown"

During the pandemic, video chat apps like Zoom make possible virtual versions of every conceivable gathering: Meetings, school classes, music and theater performances, religious services, exercise classes, game nights, and even weddings. But is Zoom secure enough to trust? Can the Internet handle the strain of 300 million Americans streaming video simultaneously? Can our smartphones be used to trace the spread of the virus—and should they? And then there’s the elephant in the room: What about Americans who don’t have broadband Internet? How are they supposed to work and take their classes?

The number of “Internet-unserved” or "Internet-underserved” Americans is somewhere between 21 million (the government’s estimate) and a staggering 150 million people (analyst estimates). As it turns out, there are some important reasons why those estimates are so wildly different, and they pose a critical question: Is the Internet a necessity, like water and electricity? Or do we still consider it a luxury? In this up-to-the-second presentation, CBS Sunday Morning/New York Times contributor David Pogue takes us on a deep dive into these questions—and the answers—with clarity and humor.

"The pandemic makes it clear: it's time to finally address the mental health crisis in America"

Never has there been a time in our history when people talked as openly about anxiety, depression, or feelings of hopelessness as they are during the pandemic. Crisis lines are no longer taking calls purely about the symptoms of COVID-19 or how to get tested, but instead are inundated with people asking for help to fight feelings of high anxiety and stress.
