Additionally, some mask requirement exceptions may be made, based on age and special needs, with policies varying among the organizations. These organizations have also committed that all staff who have any contact with the public will wear masks, rigorous cleaning protocols will be instituted, and other precautions will be taken based on each organization’s COVID-related policies.

As circumstances evolve, each of these organizations will make future decisions about the requirements of mask wearing individually. People are again encouraged to contact individual organizations regularly for their specific policies and procedures.nizations.
