Woman Within Western USA “COVID Conscious”/”Standard” Weekend Options - January 2023*
Woman Within Western USA believes in women’s safety, choice and empowerment. We aim to ensure that every woman has the resources, information and ability to choose what feels right for her. Our goal is for all women to experience what makes the Weekend, and our community, so special. We understand that there are women who need and/or want COVID prevention protocols in place, and there are women who explicitly do not want these protocols.

To that end, we will be hosting two variations of the Woman Within Weekend: “Standard” and “COVID Conscious”.

At “Standard” (No COVID precautions) Woman Within Weekends, we will only:
1. provide optional masks and hand sanitizer,
2. provide stickers that indicate your comfort level regarding physical closeness to others,
3. have optional COVID rapid antigen tests available in case you become symptomatic,
4. provide support around determining how best to isolate and/or get home,
5. support you in choosing any of the above.
6. We will not require COVID testing at “Standard” WW Weekends.
At COVID-Conscious (COVID Precautions) Woman Within Weekends, we will be implementing COVID safety measures intended to prevent the spread of COVID. All participants and staff will be required to follow these safety measures.*

At “COVID-Conscious” (COVID Precautions) Weekends, we may:
1. Require proof of negative COVID test within 72 hours preceding the Weekend
2. Require rapid antigen testing upon arrival at the Weekend site
3. Implement social distancing, if needed
4. Implement masking if a staff member or participant tests positive for COVID during the Weekend
FOR ALL OF OUR WOMAN WITHIN WEEKENDS: With choice comes responsibility. We expect that if you feel unwell or display any symptoms of illness (whether a cold, the flu, Covid,or any other potentially contagious illness), you will NOT come to the Weekend. Wherever possible, we will support you by transferring your payment to another Weekend.

If a government entity (federal, regional, or local) issues public health mandates at the time of a Weekend, we will follow these requirements.

*For as long as applicable.
I've reviewed the Weekend Options above, and accept the terms of the Julian weekend as a Standard Weekend.
