Dear ALTEC clients, families and friends, We are excited to announce that beginning Monday, November 30, 2020 you will have a larger variety of virtual activities to choose from. COVID-19 has been hard and finding things to do while at home can add a lot of stress to an already stressful situation. We certainly hope this new virtual calendar offers something of interest to you. These virtual activities are also a great time to try new things and explore hobbies you never hav...e before. Attached you will find a lovely packet of information regarding the virtual program. Please note that some of the craft activities require a RSVP a week in advance in order for ALTEC individuals to receive the craft supplies by mail. We do welcome housemates to join the activities we offer, however, we will only mail craft supplies to those individuals that ALTEC supports. Thanks for your understanding. These activities are a great way to socialize with your friends from workshop and (drum roll please) you will also be able to socialize with individuals from other service areas. That means if you have attended Colmar’s day program and have graduated to Topaz’s Day program you can socialize with some old friends and vice versa. If you have friends who have graduated to Topaz you may see some familiar faces. This is also a great way to meet new friends as well. Stay safe, stay healthy! Thank you to much, ALTEC Staff P.S. Any questions please feel free to reach out to your service area. See more
