COVID-19 Policy
For the health and safety of our community, OUT Maine will require all staff, faculty, and program participants to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Full vaccination means at least fourteen days need to have passed between the final dose of any of the currently approved vaccines and their arrival to campus. All program participants and staff will be required to wear face coverings and comply with social distancing guidelines, if necessary. To ensure compliance we will also require proof of vaccination with the student’s registration paperwork. The student should also bring a copy of their current COVID vaccination card- in physical form or a copy/photograph when they check in on campus.

Can you accommodate special-needs students? Please call or email us to discuss the youth’s needs. Due to limited housing, we cannot accommodate a youth who requires a private cabin. Email program@outmaine.org or call 800-530-6997.

Youth Participants
I’m 18, does that mean I can leave the campus during the weekend? No. We have a full schedule for the weekend, which would not allow enough time to leave campus. If you are not interested in participating in the workshops, you should not attend the weekend.
Will I have a quiet place to go if things get to be too much? Yes! We have quiet spaces available during the weekend as well as helpful adults you can speak to if you are feeling stressed.
