Visiting Policy
We are asking CRS staff, CRS families, and friends, to not attend events at CRS if:
- You, anyone in your household, or your guests are symptomatic and has yet to be medically cleared.
- You, anyone in your household, or any guests have recently returned from a high-risk region of the country or abroad and are still in the 14-day quarantine window.
- You, anyone in your household, or your guests attend, or have visited, a school or institution that is currently closed.
These additional preparations and precautions are being put in place to do our part to decrease the spread of the virus within our community and the larger community, as part of our communal responsibility. We continue to follow the recommendations of the
New York City Department of Health
and
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
regarding the evolving status of COVID-19 and will update you immediately should conditions at CRS change.
