On March 6, 2020, the Governor issued Executive Order 2020-215, declaring a state of emergency pursuant to his power under the Kentucky Constitution and KRS Chapter 39A regarding COVID-19, a mild to severe respiratory disease that can result in death. 

In recognition of that order and with the number of COVID-19 cases expected to increase, we are taking necessary steps to protect the health of our fellow Kentuckians by engaging in “social distancing” and limiting person-to-person contact in the workplace. As a result, the Autism Parent Summit at Barren River State Park will be rescheduled.
