Encore Developmental Services in Clinton are targeting resuming their operations on June 1. 

Executive Director Stephanie Coonce tells Regional Radio they will likely reopening their doors that Monday but it is unlikely they will incorporate their day-program clients into getting the store open. 

While the store plans to reopen June 1, Coonce indicates they are not ready to take donations again. She explains there is data to suggest any remnants of the coronavirus could survive in the conditions of their warehouse so they want to make sure they have a safe environment before they start accepting donations.

Coonce indicates the community will see a completely different store when they visit starting next week. They have turned over their inventory in the store and will have all new items to shop through.
