COVID-19 Safety Protocols 

Updated June 21, 2022  

A safe and comfortable experience at ACA International’s (“ACA”) 2022 Fall Forum and Expo (“Event”) is a top priority for ACA as we plan for your arrival at the Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel Chicago (“Hotel”). We have prepared these COVID-19 Safety Protocols with the health, safety and enjoyment of attendees in mind. 

These safety protocols are based on local, state and federal recommendations and mandates. However, given the evolving nature of the pandemic and changing local, state and national guidelines and requirements, safety protocols will naturally be fluid. ACA reserves the right to modify or update these safety protocols at any time so that they are appropriately tailored to the state of the COVID-19 pandemic, its attendant health and safety risks, and national, state, and local requirements and guidelines, during the dates of the event.   

Please check back periodically so you are aware of the safety protocols you will be expected to follow while attending the event. 

By attending the Event, you and anyone travelling with you agree to follow the safety protocols set in place by ACA, Hotel, Cook County, the state of Illinois and the CDC, including those stated here and onsite at the event. ACA and Venues reserve the right to ask any attendee or guest to leave the event and hotel premises at any time in the event of a suspected COVID-19 infection, exposure or symptoms. 

HOTEL – Venue & Accommodations 

Our host venue, Radisson Blu Aqua Chicago, a Radisson Hotels property, released their Health and Safety Protocols, including Meetings & Events protocols, that provide in-depth details on how they facilitate a safe, secure and healthy environment onsite for all participants, both in terms of the Event and hotel room accommodations. Though PCR and antigen testing can be pre-ordered through Radisson, ACA will not be requiring advance or on-site testing at the Event.

Attendees’ commitment to act responsibly with respect to their own health and the health of others at the event will be critical to the success of Event.  In that regard, ACA expects all attendees and their guests to conduct daily self-screenings and to self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms.  Please review the CDC list of symptoms and CDC Travel Guidance before attending the Event.  

If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms or test positive for COVID-19 or are exposed to someone who has COVID-19 symptoms or tested positive for COVID-19, during Event, we ask that you please promptly notify an ACA staff member and excuse yourself from event activities. You may want to reference the CDC Coronavirus Self Checker  at that time to obtain the CDC’s guidelines on staying away from others, testing and medical attention.  ACA and hotel staff will work with you to determine whether and when it may be appropriate for you to return to event activities.
