Our upmost priority is the safety and health of our program participants, volunteers, staff and community and we support efforts to prevent the spread of Coronavirus/COVID-19.

HRWC is committed to our mission, advancing our programs and minimizing the impacts of COVID-19. At this time our staff is working from the office and from home, alternating days in the office to minimize contact.

Please be aware that effective September 1, 2022, HRWC has moved offices to 117 North First Street, Suite 100 in Ann Arbor. The door to HRWC offices is kept locked so please knock on the front door for entry during business house.

To report spills, releases, or other environmental emergencies, please contact the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) Pollution Emergency Alert System (PEAS) hotline: 800-292-4706.

To report a hazardous spill, call 9-1-1.

If your matter is not an emergency but you just have a question or are seeking information about EGLE programs, regulations, reporting requirements, reportable quantities, etc. please call the EGLE Environmental Assistance Center: 800-662-9278.

Changes to HRWC Programming

HRWC may change the format of some programming to ensure social distancing and the safety of volunteers, donors, staff and others.

HRWC will continue to follow recommendations from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, that are designed to help prevent the spread of the virus. We will look to the Washtenaw County Health Department for information and guidance, and we will adhere to all temporary policies and measures implemented by the NEW Center in Ann Arbor, where HRWC offices are located and many of our programs are held.

If you have questions or concerns please reach out to us. Know that HRWC staff remain committed to our mission and are in a good position to advance our programs and projects under these new circumstances.

Thank you for your understanding and support.
