  • Masks  - When required, wear a mask that covers nose and mouth at all times
  • Distance - Stay 6 feet apart from others as much as possible and following signage
  • Don't Enter if sick - including but not limited to a fever and cough, see CDC guidance
  • Wash your hands - thoroughly and  immediately after entering

  • Guest Log - Guests must sign waiver each visit (used for contact tracing). Waivers can be signed online at: makehaven.org/waivers
  • Wipe down - sanitizing wipes are available if you want to wipe down your work area and any tools before and after use.
  • Increase Ventilation - When working in the woodshop turn on the exhaust fan to outside (ventilation fan is automatic in metal shop)
  • Positive test - If you test positive for COVID-19 and have been in the space in the prior 5 days, please inform staff at staff@makehaven.org, and reach out directly to anyone you worked closely with. 

MakeHaven policies are always second to National, State and City regulation and guidance related to Covid-19. If there is an apparent conflict between the two, take the more conservative path.
