The Timbers – A Wheelchair Accessible Housing Community

CPRF is taking extra precaution during this time to ensure the health and safety of our residents and staff. Visitors to The Timbers are required to check in at the Transportation office for a series of screening questions and to have their temperature taken before entering any apartment. Please wear a face mask when visiting any CPRF building. Staff members are also screened, including temperature readings, upon arriving to work. Staff members will be wearing masks when meeting face-to-face. Residents, visitors, and staff are expected to maintain social distance, as they are able. We thank you for accommodating these added measures.
