2023 COVID Practices

Monday May 1, 2023

NACC is mindful of the health and safety of all attendees at the 46th National Child Welfare Law Conference in Minneapolis. 

NACC currently does not require proof of vaccinations, waivers, or masks at any of our onsite events. However, circumstances and public health recommendations can change, and it may be necessary to adhere to new mandates required by the hotel, city, or state. We will keep all attendees updated on any changes that may impact the conference. 

NACC will have hand sanitizer and disposable masks available throughout the conference. In addition, we ask all attendees who are feeling unwell or experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms to kindly not attend the conference.
