Cardinal Services COVID-19 Updates & Resources
Updates & Resources for the Cardinal Community
A Message from Cardinal Services Executive Director, Matt Boren
As we continue to address and respond to COVID-19, Cardinal Services has continually sought and followed the guidance of local, state and national authorities.
We commend our dedicated employees who have committed to do whatever it takes to support individuals where they are needed. The people we support are so fortunate to have your assistance during these challenging times.
As we take steps to return to services as usual, the safety of each person served, our staff and families will remain our chief concern. We have a plan for that return and urge you to keep in mind that our timeline will depend upon the situation as it unfolds, and caution demands. You can read the entire plan HERE.
If you have any questions about this information or the coronavirus in general, please contact us at https://cardinalservices.org/contact/.
Thank you.
