Starting Wednesday, March 18, 2020 we will be operating our offices with smaller staff on duty each day.
Contingency plans also include:
- For program specific information, guidelines and schedules, please contact your HVCS care/case manager or specialist.
- All face-to-face meetings with clients are suspended until further notice, and there will be no walk-ins in any office.
- All groups and educational sessions are suspended until further notice.
- We will continue to provide regular food pantry bags. Until further notice, clients will need to call ahead to arrange for a food bag pickup. We will post flyers with a number to call on our doors. Food bags will be left outside of the office door, so there is no physical contact. All food bags will need to be pre-packed (no client choice options). During this time, toiletries may not be available due to supply chain issues. If you are in an emergency situation and need food, bags will be provided outside our office space.
These plans will remain in effect for two weeks (until April 1). During this time we will continually re-evaluate our situation and may need to take further steps if we are required to do so by governmental authorities.
Remember these precautions:
- Frequent handwashing is your best defense!
- Practice social distancing: stay 6 feet away from others as much as you can. Greet people with a wave rather than physical contact.
- Keep spaces clean and disinfected. Light switches and phones should be disinfected too!
More plans and news will be forthcoming as they become available. Stay healthy!
