Service Organizations
Laramie Mutual Aid
Please consider supporting and using Laramie Mutual Aid, created by Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources and Sustainability Coalition students. LMA is a system “for funding, volunteers, and help for any elderly or immunocompromised community member, or any family, household, or individual who could use a hand as our community slows down to stop the spread of the coronavirus.” LMA coordinates and aims to reduce replication with existing community support networks. Mutual aid is about supporting the community to care for each other, reducing the growing burden on existing support organizations, and adapting support networks based on evolving needs.
