Face coverings for clients, staff and vendors entering our facility will still be required on Wednesday March, 10th and until further notice. We will continue to monitor not only statewide mandates, city ordinances, but information provided by the Williamson County & Cities Health District and the CDC in order to guide our decision processes regarding face coverings and other COVID-19 mitigating strategies.
