Upon registering for Open Lab, each participant will be placed into a cohort of up to 9 youth; each cohort will have a designated day of the week during which the facilities and facilitators will be available to them. Each day, upon arriving at Open lab, participants will check in with a staff member to have their temperature taken, and to receive their daily snacks and supplies.
All open-lab participants will be asked to wear a mask and gloves while in the space. We ask that all participants wash their hands prior to arrival, and maintain social distancing practices while in the space--this includes maintaining a distance of at least 6-feet from other participants, sitting in designated seats and following all safety protocol requests made during open lab.
