DARTS “Creates Connections that Enrich Aging” by providing personalized services for older adults and their caregivers. DARTS services are designed to foster aging in place and support caregivers throughout Dakota County. By connecting with community partners who provide their time and resources, DARTS ensures we can help anyone in need.
Living our mission has enabled DARTS to respond to emerging community needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. DARTS is harnessing its bus fleet in new ways, including delivering groceries to those who cannot travel to stores themselves. We have adapted our annual Spring Cleanup so volunteers can safely help older adults with important yard maintenance, and our social workers check in regularly with older adults and caregivers to connect them with the resources they need. Meanwhile, older adults are sharing lessons from past crises to help us get through the day-to-day struggles we face today. DARTS is collecting those stories at dartsconnects.org/stories.
Because of you, our community partners, we are able to innovate and adapt to our changing world. Thank you for being the connections that enrich aging.
The Bash4Guild is an annual event that raises funds for Guild’s Youth ACT services and spreads the message that mental illness is nothing to be ashamed about. Originally, our 7th annual Bash4Guild was going to be a night of games, food, live music, and more on Saturday, April 25th. Because we are committed to the health and safety of our clients, staff, and community, we have replaced our in-person Bash4Guild with a Digital Bash4Guild.
With the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of our clients are experiencing a great loss of resources. While Guild cannot change what is happening in the world, we can work to change the lives of those we serve. Your donations and funds raised from our silent auction will go towards our Youth ACT services, which work directly with young people experiencing mental illness in our communities.
We know that during these unprecedented times you are probably facing some unexpected challenges, difficult situations, and tough decisions. As we are navigating the new Acts put into place to combat the business side of COVID-19, we have identified that many of the credits and incentives are payroll related. These are going to increase the complexity of payroll requirements and filings. As a preventative of this, it might be a good time for businesses to evaluate the utilization of a full-service payroll and HR provider like Paychex. The majority of these actions went into place on April 1st. This is a perfect time to consider some additional assistance. Paychex is at the very least more suited to handle these changes or at least provide an easier time tracking/recalling the data than businesses will be able to on their own. Paychex Inc. provides payroll services, human resources, and benefits outsourcing to more U.S. businesses than any other company. In these unprecedented times, we want to be sure no one is missing out on any opportunities and that everyone’s business needs are taken care of. Important payroll items that are involved in these new laws include required sick pay that will need to be properly documented for tax credits, deferred remittance requirements for payroll taxes, and tax credits that will be used to offset payroll tax remittances. With that in mind, contact me directly so I can share with you how Paychex can help support you and your workforce through the COVID-19 pandemic.
