Parents and caregivers,
We need your help in contacting the Governor’s office and Secretary Friedlander for our Children’s program. We have not received a date to visit with children as of this moment and the general quote from down state is the “for seeable future”. So what does that mean? We could still help the kids of NKY through teleintervention. The rub there is that the state has many, many children in their pipeline of First Steps to be tested but has not given the go ahead on testing via telehealth. IF the child is not tested, the child is not eligible for services by our great staff. Our caseloads are getting smaller and smaller. We have no children in the pipeline for services because of the loggerhead at the testing level. One option after the little one’s get tested would be for them to be seen on campus here. Plenty of space and plenty of options. Any of us that have gone to the doctor after their reopening knows the methods that are being taken to slow the spread. We are already doing the same for our adults.

Kentucky has come so far, New Perceptions has been a big part of getting Kentucky’s kids back on the correct developmental stages. You know from visiting our Our Children Achieve luncheon the wonders of our therapist and the pure joy of the parents and their extended families of the hope and promise that we provide. Let’ help Kentucky keep going forward.

Please contact Governor Andy Beshear’s office (502.564.2611) and
Secretary Eric Friedlander office (502.564.7042)

GOOD NEWS! We have a reopening date of June 29! We will be working with the health department and the State of KY determining the number of particpants and reqiurements associated with reopening.

We will have a phase in plan to eventually bring everyone back. We are so grateful for the news and the opportunity to get back together with those we are so fortunate to serve.

I will be on a conference call this evening with the Commissioner and other stakeholders across the Commonwealth. We will know more after the call and I will update you next week.

GREAT NEWS, GREAT WEEKEND, THANKS FOR HANGING IN THERE WITH US!
