COVID-19 SAFETY INFORMATION

Because COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is spread mainly from person-to-person contact, CAI-NJ has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19. However, CAI-NJ cannot guarantee that its participants, volunteers, or others in attendance will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, prior to attending any CAI-NJ event, participants must review the CAI-NJ waiver below.
