OPWDD has issued updated guidance regarding community outings for people residing in Certified Residential Facilities. For regions of New York State that have entered into Phase Four in accordance with the New York Forward Reopening Plan, community outings may resume for people living within OPWDD certified residential facilities. Furthermore, people may resume low risk activities, such as going to medical or professional service appointments and work, and participating in community-based outings, as described in the guidance, to the extent permitted by NY Forward, and consistent with the restrictions of this guidance and all applicable NYS directives.
