During that time our building was professionally cleaned and sanitized.<\/p>\n Cleanliness is priority now more than ever. We have hand sanitizer stationed throughout our building and emphasizing hand washing regularly with all of our residents. Masks are made available to all of our residents.<\/p>\n We are encouraging residents to stay on our property when they can, not gather in groups other than family units and take all possible measures to stay clean and safe. We have everyone stay at least 6ft. apart even during meals and sleeping in dorm beds.<\/p>\n Educational information about stopping the spread of germs and how to be safe has been distributed to our entire population and posted throughout the building.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Volunteers” _builder_version=”4.6.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Volunteers can now return for meal prep and serving, chapel speakers, donation sorting in limited numbers.
