2022 National Lifespan Respite Conference
COVID-19 CONFERENCE POLICY
The conference planning committee’s number one priority is the health and safety of our attendees, speakers, exhibitors, and staff. We are ready to host everyone safely at the 2022 National Lifespan Respite Conference (NLRC) while understanding that the pandemic is not over and that COVID-19 remains a threat to the public’s health. This policy will also apply to the invitation-only Lifespan Respite Grantee and Partner Learning Symposium on September 13.
The conference staff will be enforcing the following policies for attendance at the 2022 National Lifespan Respite Conference:
Prior to the conference, attendees must submit official proof of documentation of vaccination electronically. Please upload your proof of vaccination during registration, or you can email it to rcaw@badgerbay.co at least one week prior to the conference.
o People who do not meet the above vaccination status requirements due to medical or religious or personal exemptions will not be able to attend the NLRC in person.
o Evidence of prior COVID-19 infection will not be accepted as a substitute for NLRC’s vaccination requirements for in-person meetings.
The conference will also follow any additional health and safety practices mandated by the CDC, WI DHS, or by applicable federal, state, and local authorities, whichever requires the most protection. Those practices and others will be determined closer to the date of the event, and may change between registration and the event.
Our hope is that this approach will provide our members, guests, exhibitors, and staff with as safe an experience as possible. There is still time to start the vaccination process if you are not already vaccinated.
Finally, please understand that it is impossible to hold an in-person event that is completely safe from COVID-19 risks. The conference events that include food and beverages will, of necessity, require that people will be unmasked while eating and drinking.
The conference planning committee is making organizational decisions to reasonably minimize aggregate risk to our in-person attendees as a whole, but your personal risk tolerance may vary for a variety of reasons. We would love to see you in-person; however, please note:
Badger Bay Management Company is managing registration. If you have any questions or need assistance, please email Isabelle Devooght Blaney at RCAW@badgerbay.co or call 920-560-5610. |
