The Real Success Story

Author: Lisa Lamb

Planning Unit: Garrard County CES

Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

My name is Lisa Lamb, I am the Nutrition Education Program assistant in Garrard County KY. I work for the University Of Kentucky and to say that 2020/21 was a difficult is truly an understatement, But I am part of a group of extraordinary people who woke up everyday and instead of saying I am fearful I want to lock my self and my family away to stay safe. We asked ourselves what can I do to serve my community and the families of my community today.

Myself and our whole Extension office jumped in and said how can we serve this community and its people and keep ourselves and our community safe during this time of extreme lonliness. We had a group of people in the University of Ky that did not tell us you can’t do this, instead they asked how can we make this work for you to do this.
