COVID-19 Guidelines

We hold the safety of participants and staff seriously. In order to keep all participants and staff safe, we have created these guidelines. If you have any questions, please reach out to the coordinators for your program.

Masks

All participants and staff are required to wear a well fitting mask at all times for in-person programs except when filming on camera and eating or drinking in a designated location. We encourage participants and staff to wear N95 or KN95 masks.If participants or staff do not have a mask, our organization will provide a mask.

Staff and Participant Screening

Staff members and participants must complete a daily health screening before arriving on set. Any staff or participant that doesn't complete the screening, or shows signs of illness must remain home.

Symptoms

If a participant or staff member has begun showing symptoms of COVID-19 (either through the screening or as observed by staff), they will be asked to not participate in in-person programming until they either test negative for COVID-19, or if they are symptom free for 10 days.

COVID-19 Testing and Vaccines: Attendance Requirements

All participants are required to show proof of vaccination against COVID-19 or provide a negative test result for COVID-19 dated within 72 hours of attending in-person programs. All BAVC staff are required to be fully vaccinated to work in-person, with reasonable accommodations considered for medical and/or religious reasons. If any participants test positive for COVID-19 while attending BAVC Media programs in-person, they must immediately contact the leader of the program they are attending, and are not allowed to attend in-person programming until they have tested negative for COVID-19 and have been symptom-free for 10 days.
