With CI Community Center being closed due to the pandemic, our staff have gotten very creative with hosting virtual activities! Here is our July calendar of virtual activities provided via Facebook and Zoom. If you are a CI Community Center client, parent or caregiver, message us to make sure you are added to the Facebook group!
CI Community Center's garden and greenhouse are flourishing! We are lucky to have a couple staff members with green thumbs who are dedicated to this initiative. We are looking forward to the day our clients can return and help us in the garden.
