While our nation continues to experience the challenging impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the care and safety of our program participants/families, staff, and the community at large is a top priority. Therefore, to help reduce the spread of COVID-19, the Chill Foundation has incorporated into its day-to-day operations and programming platforms, the following precautions and guidelines as recommended by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH).

• Require face masks
• Teach and encourage appropriate hygiene – i.e., proper handwashing techniques
• Practice social distancing
• Control group sizes for in-person learning environments
• Prepare to transition to virtual/online engagement, activities and curriculum, if and when the need arises

As the situation continues to evolve, the Organization is committed to remain vigilant by regularly reviewing the websites below for any updates or new developments and will make appropriate modifications in our practices and programming, accordingly.
