In anticipation of what promises to be a jam-packed and worthwhile inaugural Fair Lending Forum, we wanted to share with you the steps we’re taking to keep everyone - our attendees, our sponsors and our team - as safe as possible in light of ongoing public health concerns related to COVID-19. We are committed to creating a healthy and safe environment for all.

    • 2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, or
    • 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson's Janssen vaccine.
  • Mask protocol will follow local guidance

Accepted forms of proof of vaccination (accompanied by valid photo ID) include:

  • Original vaccination card
  • Photo of front and back of vaccination card
  • Photocopy of front and back of vaccination card
  • Digital vaccine card

Accepted forms of proof of negative test (accompanied by valid photo ID) include:

  • Electronic result or printout of electronic result from an FDA-approved rapid test.
  • Result must include name of individual, test result, name of lab and date the test was taken.
