STATEMENT
We at PACO understand that these are challenging times. The Covid-19 or Coronavirus has entered our way of life, and we are all working each day to ensure our families, and the community-at-large remains safe. We have created a Coronavirus section on our website to share and keep everyone up to date with any new information and impact on PACO programming.
At this time, PACO intends to remain open and to offer our services until we are permitted to do so. We are actively communicating with our staff and will update our constituents of the most current information.
We are working with State and local health officials to determine the best course of action in the coming days. We are working with our staff to ensure we minimize the spread of the virus and are taking the necessary precautions. Please stay tuned to our website and social media channels, as we determine the best course to continue to serve the community.
Please stay safe and healthy,
