As of April 4, 2022, our physical office is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. On these days, we will allow vaccinated guests to drop by the office. Until further notice, unvaccinated guests are only allowed in the office by appointment with a staff member.

The health and safety of our team, young people, volunteers, and community is important to NMCAN. We are implementing a phased approach to reopening the office and cautiously returning to full capacity.

If you plan to drop by our office, we ask that you:

• Bring proof of vaccination if you haven’t already shared it with NMCAN staff.
• Fill out a brief wellness questionnaire when you arrive.
• Wear a mask at all times inside the office.
• Respect everyone’s personal space by keeping social distance when possible and following guest capacity for each room in the office.
• Wipe down tables or other high-touch spaces when you are done using them.

If you feel sick and are experiencing any symptoms related to COVID-19 (fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting), stay home, and please visit us another day. If you need a COVID-19 test, you can schedule one by visiting, https://cv.nmhealth.org/public-health-screening-and-testing/.
