Yarmouth Community Coronavirus Task Force

The Yarmouth Coronavirus Community Task Force is a grassroots organization. We work in collaboration with the Town of Yarmouth and Cumberland County service organizations to assist with the disruptions and uncertainties caused by the Coronavirus epidemic. We stand together to help the increasing number of people who may experience food shortages, social isolation, medical and transportation needs in the wake of this coronavirus epidemic. We are part of a larger community strategy that has been initiated by our Town Council, our Town Manager, YCS, EMS, Police, Fire, and all public servants. It is our goal that we participate in efforts to keep core services open, provide residents with safe ways to meet their needs, and work together to mitigate the epidemic and maintain our personal/community health.
