Dear Families and Friends,

As Michigan’s stay-at-home order has been lifted and more businesses and organizations are being allowed to re-open, Judson Center is excited to welcome you back to our many programs. Please be assured that Judson Center has been working diligently toward the safe and healthy opening of all locations effective June 4, in compliance with Michigan’s stay smart, stay safe measures.

As we outlined in a prior letter to our families and friends, Judson Center has put many safeguards in place that enables us to not only meet—but exceed—the health standards required by law. Our primary goal is to provide the highest level of service to Judson Center families while keeping everyone safe and healthy. From social distancing, mandatory masks, temperature taking, regular hand-washing and additional sanitizing protocols, you have the commitment of each and every Judson Center and Child Safe Michigan employee to serve you fully and safely.

We remain available to assist you in both the traditional way and the new ways that we adopted during the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes meeting your needs for support through phone, email and video conferencing.  For primary health care, we offer both in-person care at Judson Center Family Health in Warren or telehealth virtual appointments. Telehealth will remain as an ongoing service and is always available as a safe and effective option for receiving a primary care consultation, should you prefer. The doctor can determine if an in-person visit is required after the telehealth visit. Telehealth is also available for Judson Center Behavioral Health services.

Below is a listing and link to all Judson Center services. For returning families, expect to be contacted by the individual departments that serve you if you have not been in touch already. For those new to Judson Center, welcome!
