Dear OnFocus community,
When we as a nation are faced with adversity, we find a means to pull through and make good of the time. We continue to see neighbors, family and complete strangers supporting each other. We have been blessed to have been by your side through the recent months and we will continue to be with you as we move our nation, our community, our neighborhood forward.
We know that times are stressful, emotions are high, and there are important issues facing our communities right now. We appreciate your support of our platform and your trust in us during these times, and we will continue to strive to provide you with quality local news that matters most.
As we notice conversations becoming more heated on our social media pages, we want to remind everyone of our social media guidelines. As advocates of free speech, we feel that our job is not to censor posts but to provide a platform for discussion. With so many ways to participate in civil discourse, however, please note that we will not tolerate certain types of behavior on the platform.
A reminder of our social media guidelines follows.
Thank you again for supporting community news! We value each and every one of you! As always, feel free to share your stories with us at [email protected].
Thank you,
Branden Bodendorfer, Founder
