We have maintained our essential tenant services like mail delivery throughout the pandemic.
We have added new virtual services focusing on community connection to support our tenants while they work remotely.
We have supported our tenants and partners most severely impacted by this economic crisis by offering rent deferments to our tenants and continuing building services that provide needed work for our vendors.
We have prioritized timely communications to help our community make informed decisions.
We will be increasing our cleaning frequency and working with our janitorial team to meet or exceed all health department guidelines.
Our doors are open for the public, and we have at least one Alliance Center staff member on site during normal business hours.

PROGRAM RESOURCES

The Alliance Center is adapting all of our programing to prioritize public health. We are postponing all in-person events for the time being, but are working hard to compile and share useful resources, online tools and actions you can partake in from the safety of your home. We’re more resilient together, stand with us!
