Let’s keep
#VallejoStrong
We are a coalition of public, private and civic leaders and organizations collaborating to serve as Vallejo’s COVID-19 Information and Resource Center
Stay at Home Order
On March 19th, 2020, the State of California issued a stay at home order, requiring all residents to remain in their dwellings except to get food, care for a relative or friend, get necessary health care, or go to an essential job. #VallejoStrong provides information and resources to community members affected by COVID-19, while allowing you to remain at home.
How to protect yourself
against COVID-19
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a new coronavirus introduced to humans for the first time. It is spread from person to person mainly through the droplets produced when an infected person speaks, coughs or sneezes. Watch this short animation to learn more about COVID-19 and how to protect yourself against it.
Useful Information and Resources
To help us get you the right resources, please tell us what you’re looking for.
I'm worried about food
As COVID-19 unfolds in Vallejo, we know that it may impact your ability to feed you and your family.
If you are worried about having enough food, please fill out our survey so that we can connect you with the right resources for your needs.
We are currently building a health code compliant-system to deliver meals and when we are up and running, we will let you know
I'm worried about income
We know that due to COVID-19 many of our Vallejo workers will experience lay-offs or reduced hours. We also know that with crises like the COVID-19, there will be new opportunities for work. #VallejoStrong is building a platform and raising a Resiliency Fund to help Vallejo workers pay rent and maintain their livelihoods by servicing new community needs (e.g. meal preparation, meal delivery, childcare needs and digital health coaching).
I want to volunteer
The #VallejoStrong team is receiving volunteer opportunities on a rolling basis, and is working to identify where the greatest need for volunteer support will exist. After volunteers sign up, they will be sent information about open opportunities and invited to sign up for a particular shift. We anticipate many opportunities to serve over the next several weeks, and many of these opportunities will be virtual.
Let's make #VallejoStrong
#VallejoStrong is fueled by private, public, and civic leadership to facilitate the flow of accurate information and ensure an agile, resilient, and collaborative response to COVID-19 in our community.
I'm worried about my small business
With event cancellations, reduced foot traffic, self-quarantining and work from home policies, we know that COVID-19 is affecting business revenue.
We want to volunteer
As the COVID-19 situation continues, there is an emerging need for volunteers to (safely) support critical community needs, and to donate specific supplies. Please fill out the survey to be connected with a volunteer opportunity.
Worried about your small business?
To mitigate the economic impacts caused by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the City of Vallejo wants to highlight a variety of programs and efforts to support small businesses and workers.

Stay at Home
On March 19th, 2020, the State of California issued a stay at home order, requiring all residents to remain in their dwellings except to get food, care for a relative or friend, get necessary health care, or go to an essential job. Because COVID-19 is spread through contact with others, social distancing is a crucially important public health intervention that can help stop coronavirus transmission.
