District Communication

District Communication

 

A table shows preferred communication methods for various types of information.

We want people to reach out to us when they have concerns or questions if information is not available through our primary channels, as illustrated in the GDRH Preferred Method of Communication Chart.  It is important to start communication with the person who is closest and has the most information and context.  The GDRH Point of Contact Progression for Families/Caregivers (SEE BELOW) provides a progression of contacts that can be used to gather information effectively and work through situations.  When contacting the district, please utilize this progression chart.  District staff will redirect your questions or concerns as needed to maintain the integrity of this progression.
