Dear Local Health Department Partners,

We are writing to share important information regarding a new fingerprinting requirement applicable to resident camps. For your awareness, a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) has been developed that outlines the process and provides step-by-step guidance for compliance.

The SOP is attached to this email and includes detailed instructions. Please feel free to share this information with resident camp operators in your jurisdiction as appropriate.

Any camp operators with questions should be directed to youth.camps@doh.nj.gov for further assistance.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support.

Best regards,
