They brighten people’s days through art, take portraits of neighbors and friends, play music for an entire neighborhood and give residents a chance to safely watch a movie together and feel more “normal.” But despite this unique situation, communities - and even businesses - are finding creative and new ways to stay closer together than ever before. The health crisis has people stuck inside their homes, unable to meet up with friends and family, visit neighbors or even do basic, fun activities such as going to the theater.

Our Advisors are always ready to help, and in light of some of the examples we’ve seen, it’s just one more way of hanging together while we’re far apart. In addition, we have made Crisis Assist* 16a available to current eligible owners, which means specially trained Advisors can help assist with medical emergencies, screen for COVID‑19 symptoms and communicate that information to First Responders, as well as provide routing assistance to COVID-19 testing facilities. If you do have to head out for groceries, for an emergency or because you’re an essential worker, Advisors are there to give you added peace of mind while on the road. OnStar Advisors are still available and ready to help 24/7 for those times when you need to leave home. OnStar is pitching in to help keep those same communities safe, wherever possible. But many are still finding community - often in touching ways - at a distance.
