The CTC-CK has implemented recommended public health infection controls and safety practices, but as COVID-19 is an easily transmitted infectious disease, it is not possible to guarantee that there is absolutely no risk of transmission. CTC-CK is currently offering both in-person and virtual services to meet your family’s needs, and welcomes all questions regarding COVID-19 protocols.
For the health and safety of all clients, visitors, contractors, and staff, we are screening everyone for signs, symptoms, and risk factors associated with COVID-19 before receiving in-person services and entry into our building.
