YAP COVID Policy:
Currently, masks are not mandatory in the YAP office, but wearing them is always welcome. Our aim is to foster a welcoming and safe environment for everyone. If you would like the staff member you are meeting with to wear a mask, please let us know in advance. This ensures our staff can arrive and stay masked throughout your visit. -- For those who would like them: YAP has free KN95 masks available to use during your visit, or to take home with you!
To meet your needs in a way that works for you, most of our services are also available virtually. Kindly inform us if you would like this option, and we will provide a meeting link.
If you are not feeling well and are experiencing respiratory symptoms (cough, shortness of breath, etc.), and need to meet with YAP staff, please let us know beforehand. We may request to meet only virtually until you have recovered. If you have tested positive for COVID-19, Flu, RSV, or other respiratory infection we ask that you do not come to the office until your symptoms have resolved -AND- you have been feeling better for 24 hours.
