Mask & Lab Policies

Latitude strives to make our community lab a safe and courageous place for all users. Currently, we do not require masks for picking up or dropping off service orders and for consultations. If you would like a staff member to wear a mask when you are in the lab, please ask! When making a DIY appointment our form offers the ability to ask for lab users to wear a mask during that time slot. If you select yes then all lab users, staff, and volunteers will wear a mask. If they do not have one, a mask will be provided!
