As cases of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, appear in the Fox River Valley, we would like to be transparent about how we’re responding to the outbreak as the “community’s foundation”.
Due to the restrictions that are being placed on organizations statewide, and in order to do our part in flattening the curve of this pandemic, all of our employees are working remotely. Thus, we ask that you contact us using one of the methods listed at the bottom of this page, or visit our staff page to contact one of us directly. We continue to review updates on the virus as they come, advising staff to follow precautionary measures suggested at the local, state, and national levels.
We want to share some helpful public resources to keep you informed about COVID-19 and plan accordingly.
