KANSAS CITY, Mo. â Just over one year ago, Kansas Citians shifted into shutdown mode to limit the spread of COVID-19.
The collateral damage came quickly â residents lost jobs, families lost child care, children were forced into virtual classrooms, and countless people navigated food insecuroty, mental health issues and even lost loved ones.
