Winter Break - 2023

John's usual--

I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays & a well-deserved break. CLI staff is resting up this week and looking forward to hit the ground running in the new year!

CLI says goodbye to 2 of our favorite people this year. Nurse Carla is retiring and she will be sorely missed. Carla has been part of CLI's programs for many years and we are grateful for all of her dedication & great service over the years. We're happy for her (but selfishly hope that she gets really bored in retirement and calls us again). Olivia joined CLI in late 2020 and quickly found her niche organizing ADS activities. We've really benefitted from Olivia's tenure with CLI and wish her well as she jumps into full-time parenting with both feet.

Have a great week off people. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone.

Question of the week



Q: What are CLI's Policies if I test positive for COVID? What if my roommate tests positive?

A: CLI follows the CDC guidelines. This means:

If a CLI client or a CLI staff test have symptoms and/or test positive for COVID, they must quarantine for 5 days from the onset of the symptoms, then they can return to CLI, but must wear a mask 100% of the time they are with other CLI clients and/or staff for the next 5 days.

If a CLI client or a CLI staff live with someone who tests positive for COVID, they can participate in CLI programs as long as the following things are true:

1. They take a COVID test and test negative
2. They do not themselves have symptoms
3. They wear a mask 100% of the time they are with CLI staff & clients until we've received official notice that their house has been cleared (no more COVID).

"(We must) confront another form of bias: the soft bigotry of low expectations."

-- George W. Bush
