Covid-19 Updates and Important Information

UPDATE 2/3/21 12:55pm

Based on the current rate of vaccinations and the latest projections of Covid-19 infections, we are now planning to return to in-person programs in September of this year, with the possibility of some late summer camp sessions. Our ability to reopen is going to be driven by both county health and regional center guidelines. In order to ensure the safety of all involved, we will also be requiring all clients, staff, and contractors to be vaccinated in order to participate in our in-person programs.

UPDATE 4/28/20 1:30pm

The shelter-in-place orders have been extended through the end of May in Santa Clara County. All scheduled respite sessions for Via West have been canceled. First Step will continue to use teletherapy to provide speech and occupational therapy as well as assessments. Our office remains closed, but our staff is available during normal business hours.

If you have any questions and you are a First Step client, please contact Jen Baird. If you are a Via West client, please contact Matt Bell.
