Updated Tuesday, July 28, 2020
We are open and here for you!
We are now offering pre-arranged in-person services for clients, on a case by case basis. We are also continuing to offer our services over the phone and through video calls.
In line with the Government of Ontario’s Re-Opening Framework, Carizon will be taking a phased approach for returning to in-person operations. Starting July 2020 as part of Phase 1, we are offering face-to-face services for select counselling, community services, and children’s mental health programs, on a case by case basis. Based on client needs, Carizon staff will determine and pre-arrange an in-person service as needed.
Through controlled access to buildings, increased sanitation, and implementing physical distancing and face-covering on-site, our priority is the safety and wellbeing of our clients and employees.
What we learn from Phase 1, we will apply to improve and roll-out Phase 2 to bring more staff and services to our clients and the community in Fall 2020.
