Outcome: Initial Outcome
Ten percent of Hart County’s population is made up of citizens who do not have access to electronic media sources. When the COVID-19 crisis arrived the Hart County Family and Consumer Sciences agent recognized the need to get information about the pandemic and preventive measures into the hands of the identified population. A newsletter with information about how to contact Extension agents during the pandemic, a hand washing poster, communication about the pandemic, timely agriculture and nutrition information was compiled and mailed to 478 households.. As a result of working with this population during this unusual time the Hart County Family and Consumer Sciences agent was able to introduce the Chamber Director and local hospital administration to a medical sewing company who is equipped and willing to produce a large quantity of mask quickly should the need arise.
