Your team may take this into consideration when hosting in-person events.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consider these easy gathering hacks.<\/strong> For most properties, outdoor events may be the easiest way to encourage safe practices during gatherings. You can enjoy the indoors together as well. Below are a few considerations.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Films on the Green \u2013 outdoor movie viewings are an easy way to promote community while practicing social distancing. Consider asking residents to bring their own drinks and snacks.<\/li>\n<li>Pool Party &#8211; The pool is always a warm weather favorite. Fortunately, there is\u00a0no evidence that COVID-19 can survive in chlorinated pools, hot tubs and spas. While those water features may be safe zones, the entertainment spaces around them will require regular care. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/news\/reopening-multifamily-amenities\/24594.html\">Explore reopening strategies for multifamily amenities.<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Gaming Parties \u2013 Find the kids and teens in their natural habitats\u2014parked in front of their gaming consoles! By organizing gaming parties, you can help young, new residents meet other kids while practicing social distancing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Continue to guide residents towards helpful resources<\/strong>. Last but certainly not least, continue your dedication to community wellness. Your organization and residents may continue to feel the impacts of COVID-19 for years to come. This may feel particularly jarring as the world returns to a sibilance of normalcy in other areas. There are several resources available to assist staff and residents through these unprecedented times.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/covidinitiative.rentalhousingindustry.org\/mentalhealth\/landing-11SL-17325.html\">The Mental Health Resource Library<\/a> helps users navigate the pressures, challenges and unknowns of life during and after the pandemic.\u00a0The library includes videos, articles and other media that are practical and user friendly.<\/p>\n<p>In the library, users discover tools to help them adapt and bounce back after major life changes.
