Do you have questions about when and where you can receive the COVID-19 vaccine, contact tracing, traveling to or from the State of New Jersey, or even finding a new job? The State of New Jersey offers up-to-date information, resources, and guidance at our COVID-19 Information Hub.
Overnight and day camps are allowed to open in New Jersey this summer, while following required safety guidelines, including:
- Indoors, unvaccinated staff must wear face masks at all times except when not practicable, such as when eating or drinking, or sleeping.
- For overnight camps, all unvaccinated/partially vaccinated staff/campers will be required to have a documented negative test within 72 hours of arriving on-site.
- Camps must ensure, to the maximum extent possible, that groups include the same children and staff each day. Camp operators should minimize unvaccinated staff/camper movement between groups.

Visit the COVID-19 community calendar to find events near you, including pop-up vaccination sites and clinics. The calendar will be regularly updated with opportunities to get vaccinated in your community, no appointment needed. Organizations can also submit upcoming events related to COVID-19 vaccination such as virtual town halls.

If you are fully vaccinated or receive your first shot by July 4th, you can receive a free season “State Parks Vax Pass,” good for entrance at any State park for the rest of 2021. Go to nj.gov/vaxandvisit to learn more and register for your State Parks Vax Pass. Once you receive an email with your pass, you can enter any State park free of charge.

As of this week, adult medical daycare centers can reopen while following Department of Health safety protocols. These facilities will need to attest to satisfying the guidance requirements to ensure the centers can be opened safely. If all participants and staff are fully vaccinated, physical distancing and group size requirements do not need to be maintained.

Everyone 12 or older who lives, works, or studies in New Jersey can now get their COVID-19 vaccine.
COVID-19 vaccines are FREE, and you can get vaccinated whether or not you have insurance, regardless of your documentation status.
We sent a note yesterday with a reminder that vaccines are available to everybody in New Jersey. Feel free to forward to friends and family!
