A new online resource called the New Haven People and the Environment Research Library (New Haven PERL) is now publicly available! We appreciate the invaluable support of those of you who have already contributed to the success of this project. 

To stop the spread of COVID-19, Connecticut needs everyone to do their part. One way you can help yourself and your community is by downloading the COVID Alert CT app, which notifies you if you have been in close contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.

COVID Alert CT is a voluntary, anonymous, exposure-notification smartphone app. You will get an alert if you were in close contact with someone who tests positive for COVID-19. Knowing about a potential exposure allows you to self-quarantine immediately, get tested, and reduce the potential exposure risk to your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers and others.

The more people who participate in COVID Alert CT, the more effective it will be. 

Help protect your community while maintaining your privacy. The free mobile app–available to anyone 18 or older who lives, works, or attends college in Connecticut–is available for download from the Google Play Store; iPhone users can enable COVID Alert CT right from the Settings app on iOS.COVID Alert CT is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Mandarin, Haitian-Creole (Android only), Bengali (Android only), and Arabic.
