Health + Safety Policy
In-Person Gatherings + Covid-19
In keeping with CDC guidelines, we continue to update our health and safety policy as we continue to prioritize everyone’s safety and health when we gather together in person. We are grateful to the Den’s COVID Medical Task Force for sharing their professional expertise with us throughout this process.
The Den is committed to cultivating spaces where people are welcoming of each other and considerate of people’s needs. The health and safety of our community is a top priority. The following guidelines are subject to change according to any updated guidance or mandate issued by the CDC.
In-Person Gathering Requirements + Guidelines:
Participants must be fully vaccinated prior to attending any in person Den gathering. If they are unable to receive the vaccine for medical or other reasons, participant(s) must notify a Den staff team member in advance of the gathering.
Participants must notify a Den staff team member in advance of the gathering if they are experiencing or have experienced any symptoms or symptoms of COVID-19 within the past 14 days.
Participants must notify a Den staff team member in advance of the experience if they have been exposed to anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 within the past 14 days.
Participants must knowingly assume the risk of possible exposure to the coronavirus (or other public health risk) by attending an in-person gathering, and release the Den Collective, its board, and staff members from any and all liabilities.
When we gather together indoors, we will follow CDC guidelines.
How do I sign up for an in-person gathering? Each in-person gathering will include a pre-registration link with information. If you are experiencing any COVID symptoms or have a known exposure, please stay home to keep our community healthy and safe. Feel better soon. Have any questions? Reach out to us.
Vaccines
Receiving a vaccine and boosters—for those eligible and medically able—is one of the most important things one can do to engage in pikuah nefesh, the imperative to save a life. We have all seen over the past several years as the number of COVID cases and deaths rose and fell based on the actions and decisions of individuals. We believe that there is a Jewish and moral imperative for all who are able to get vaccinated, and to do so as soon as possible—for your own sake, and for the sake of the broader community.
If you have concerns or questions about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine, we encourage you to speak with your physician.
