Q Wait, are we back to where we were in March? Is this total lockdown? A No, we are not on total lockdown. The differences between now and March include: • • • Day programs remain safely open We are using decision tree guidance to decide about work and school We are allowing some safe activities, appointments, and trainings to continue Q I don’t get it, why have we paused on family visits but some individuals served can go to work? A It’s a 4 -part answer: • • We are asking teams to use the provided decision trees to make the best decisions they can about work/school, taking everything into consideration but knowing it won’t be perfect Family visits introduce potential over 1, 000 people in 100’s of environments, and more contact, while we have a very limited number of people who will be working and only if we think the risk is low Ensuring the people we serve have a role as citizens in their community is what we do, and there is greater long-term impact for them if they lose a job If there is a potential exposure at their work or program site or if the prevalence rates in their community changes, we will consider these factors Frequently asked level 3 questions 7

Things to remember • • • Level 3 is PRECAUTIONARY and hopefully TEMPORARY It is meant to keep us in a good place, especially before the upcoming holiday season We are acting out of an ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION This will not be perfect– we are all doing the best we can You are doing great! WE CAN’T MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY! Only Justin Timberlake and Pizza can do that! Frequently asked level 3 questions 8
