Dear Members and Friends of ASAC,

ASAC Phase I begins in early October

We have worked hard to prepare our staff and facility for reopening and we are committed to opening our center as soon as possible. Currently we are operating with a goal of opening in October with a modified schedule for this first phase (Phase 1). Phase 1 will include continued online programming, shared resources for social and educational opportunities and soft launching of some services and programs on-site. On-site offerings will at first be by appointment only for specific services that will include Medicare counseling via our Medicare Information Office, Benefits Enrollment Center screening and assistance, hair and nail care, some fitness services and restaurant services.

As we are able to initiate Phase 2, we will expand on-site offerings and the frequency and availability of some services. We have undertaken extensive training and our staff is ready to assist with reservations for services and programs and on site screening prior to entering the center. This month we have a drive through Flu Shot Clinic on October 6 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and we continue to operate our food security programs by curbside pickup and mail. Going forward we plan to continue to offer both virtual and on site programming together to provide a broad scope of ways for different individuals to engage, socialize and get assistance and information.

We look forward to continuing to serve our valued patrons and the community in the ways you rely on and new ways through technology, online and phone access.

Warmest regards,

Becky Parker,

Executive Director
