ALX Promise

The City of Alexandria and the Alexandria Health Department (AHD) remind everyone that you are safest at home. If you must leave your home, you are required to wear a face covering when inside buildings. Please keep at least 6 feet of distance from others. Your neighbors and loved ones are counting on you to stop the spread of COVID-19.

More Alexandria businesses reopened on July 1 in Phase Three of the “Forward Virginia” blueprint, and participate in the ALX Promise program and support safe interaction with the public. This program, offered by AHD in partnership with Visit Alexandria, trains business owners and operators how to properly and effectively create a safe, sanitized environment for customers and patrons. Businesses that complete the training receive an ALX Promise shield to display. All Alexandria businesses are encouraged to participate. Visit Alexandria offers a list of businesses that have completed the program, which is updated regularly.
