Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

As the United States faces the worst public health crisis in a generation, we want you to know

we are here for you — and with you.

Whatever happens, whenever it happens, your newspaper will be there for you. We’ll be there

to let you know how our community is managing through this crisis — from business to

government to the health care system and schools to the drastic impact on individuals and

families.

And we’ll be there to let you know about the good and extraordinary things happening in the

midst of this crisis — citizens and nonprofit workers attending to the homeless community, the

volunteers bringing food to elderly people who cannot leave their homes, the healthcare workers

putting themselves in harm’s way to care for the sick.

Amidst the sadness and anxiety, there are uplifting moments that remind us of the resilience of

the human spirit, and we’ll be there to document those too.

We are here to help you make sense of the situation and to help you navigate it.

Having fact-based, reliable reporting that provides public scrutiny and oversight is more

important than ever. Together, across the decades, this newspaper and its readers have

navigated horrific events — natural disasters, terrorism, financial downturns, periods of extreme

political and societal division.

This challenge is greater than any of those, but, rest assured, we’ll be here for you. Let’s stick

together, and we will come through this, too.
