SHARING THE AIR
AT OUR PROGRAMMING
We continue (2025) to uphold our mask mandate, which means at in-person programs, everyone shares a community standard of wearing a respirator mask (which we provide, thanks to donate a mask].
Why do we mask? It keeps everyone in the space safer! We are holding our programs in a time when we know viruses and other particles in the air are common. We mask to protect Disabled community members in our spaces, we mask to prevent many 2SLGBTQIA+ youth from developing life-long illnesses, and many, many more reasons!
Masking is a community effort, meaning we also mask for those who can’t! If you personally can’t wear a mask for medical/access reasons just let us know. We mask to keep you safe, too.
For cleaner air practices, we meet outside, or inside spaces with open air flow, or indoors with air purifiers. As part of sharing the air, please make sure you’re not wearing perfumes/colognes/other scented products at our programs.
We no longer have a free supply of rapid tests, but encourage anyone with access to COVID/flu/etc. rapid testing to test before programs - every break in transmission counts!
If you are experiencing any new-to-you or worsening symptoms, for example a new cough, please ask to join virtually instead!

Our in-person programs are held in step-free community spaces that can be navigated by many different access aids. Each space had its own access tools and access barriers, so please see the detailed access guides for each space linked below. See this plain text access guide document for text nagivation.
