Description
In this interview, Participant 38 shares about navigating COVID-19 with a medical condition, including difficulty breathing while wearing a face mask. The participant shares about isolating themselves, staying home with their child, and ordering online. They shared about challenges with remote learning, such as computer problems, but that their child's school provided books and transportation as well as support from teachers and aides.

They feel that the community needs jobs and affordable housing, and that New Jersey needs to have more people helping in different places.
