Eligible businesses are those that can demonstrate economic injury of at least 25 percent due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Grants up to $10,000 will be awarded for business interruption costs including rent, mortgage, payroll, utilities, safety training, and supplies like masks, gloves, and sanitizer. Grants up to $20,000 will be awarded for expenses to facilitate compliance with public health orders including temporary or permanent wall partitions, germ shields, exterior pick-up windows, outdoor seating, touchless bathroom fixtures, touchless payment systems, and online ordering platforms All eligible items must be purchased between March 1 and November 30, 2020.

Expectations
Continued from page 13
our self- concept which is a mosaic of our ideas, thoughts, and experiences. Because the development of a healthy self-concept is so imperative, children must be affirmed and established in their inherent value, as well as their gifts and talents so they develop a strong, positive, “Can do” mental attitude. Children need to see themselves as capable and overflowing with value and worth. They need to like themselves and treat themselves well, avoiding unhealthy high-risk behaviors that would damage their self-concept. This will enable them to have high expectations of themselves, their behavior, their friends, and their future accomplishments. Individuals who have a healthy self-concept, like and accept themselves, are more likely to honor, respect and value others. When we follow the law of expectations, it will lead us toward healthy relationships, achievement, and fulfillment. joneen@myrelation shipcenter.org.
