TFN COVID Health & Safety Protocols

Effective Date: Dec. 10, 2024

We look forward to seeing you in person and are committed to hosting inclusive and accessible events.

In the spirit of mutual care and collective safety, we request that attendees please adhere to the following safety protocols:

Tests: We strongly encourage participants, speakers, and vendors to take a rapid COVID-19 test within 24 hours of traveling or attending our programming. We will have tests and masks available at our registration table for those who may need them during the event.

Symptoms: If you test positive for flu or COVID-19 or are not feeling well and experience symptoms including fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, or difficulty breathing in the days prior to or during the event, please do not participate. If you are waiting for COVID-19 test results or have had close contact with a person who has tested positive for or who has COVID-19 symptoms, please stay home unless you receive a negative test result before the event.

Masks: We ask that you are mindful and respectful of our colleagues and their loved ones who are more vulnerable to infection. Masks are welcome and supported, though optional in accordance with national public health guidelines. At the request of a facilitator or presenter, specific breakout sessions may be designated as mask required.

Vaccination: While proof of immunization is not required for attendance, we strongly encourage all event participants to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Vaccination remains one of the most effective measures in preventing the spread of the virus and other seasonal illnesses such as the flu and RSV. Please visit the CDC website for current recommendations and the booster schedule.

TFN may update our health and safety policy to address emerging issues. If there is a significant shift in policy, we will email event registrants directly.

TFN Event Liability Waiver:

Attendees hereby assume all of the risks of participating in this event, and waive, release and discharge TFN and its directors, board members, officers, and employees from any and all liability. Attendees agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and promise not to sue the entities or persons mentioned above from any and all liabilities or claims made as a result of participation in this activity or event.
