There will not be any CC Opening Houses for the public for the foreseeable future due to the state pandemic guidelines, and also to ensure the safety of CC workers and our clients as well. However, we will begin collecting coats and other outerwear very shortly. We will make this clothing available to people in need through the agencies we work with. We will let you all know when we are ready to collect these donations and where to drop them off. Thanks for all the wonderful donations that make this mission possible. Stay safe! Cheryl Brigante will be the new CC coordinator from Unity. Email her with any queries cherylbrigante@hotmail.com
