Coronavirus Resource Guide
Coronavirus Resources
As the Coronavirus continues to surge, Michaels Team Members provide necessary and essential support to our customers and the communities we serve. We have been there from the beginning of this devastating pandemic. The challenges have been significant.
Many of you have dealt with substantial hardship, illness and loss in the months since the pandemic began. Michaels CARES has provided valuable assistance and economic support for COVID contact quarantine, life-threatening illnesses and deaths. Grants are available for any team members that meet the requirements. You can reach us at michaelscares@michaels.com with questions.
To provide Team Members additional resources, we are launching this Coronavirus Resources page that will provide you a wide range information, counseling support and opportunities to apply for financial assistance.
This page will be updated regularly as more information becomes available. Bookmark this page and check back often. Share the link with co-workers and family members.
