Our Mission:
To creatively enrich the lives of the individuals we serve by teaching them the functional skills they need to enjoy valued and meaningful roles in the community.
Dear Participants and Stakeholders,
As you all know, the world-wide pandemic has greatly impacted the way that CFC has provided services to the community. In March of 2020, we were asked to close our doors to individuals at our brick-and-mortar locations and until recently not been allowed to reopen those sites. In July 2021, we planned to reopen but have been faced with the current staffing crisis as well as the continued financial burden of maintaining and readying the remaining Corrales site.
It is with our deepest regret to inform you that ALL CFC Community Based Sites to include 3650 Corrales will remain closed.
CFC will continue to provide, employment, therapy, and community-based services to include CCSI and Small Group. For the time being, CFC Zoom Classes will continue. All services provided will continue to adhere to DDSD and Department of Health policy as per the Governor’s directives and are at the request of the team. If CFC can provide any additional services that you are not currently receiving or you are interested in more information, please do not hesitate to contact myself or one of our core team members listed below. CFC is committed to assisting with transition of services as requested to ensure a smooth as possible transition.
If you have belongings that you need to pick up, please utilize the contacts below to plan to either pick up items or troubleshoot how to have items back in your possession. We are doing our best to gather personal items, but if there is something specific you are looking for or need, please do not hesitate to ask.
Warm Regards,
Robert Hobbs, Owner/President 505-379-1793
