Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service empowers communities to respond to challenges they face and reacting to the COVID-19 pandemic has been no different. One of the first challenges identified was that health care facilities throughout the state did not have enough personal protective equipment for frontline workers to do their jobs during the pandemic. Cooperative Extension staff collaborated with Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) across the state to help address the lack of personal protective equipment. In the Lake Cumberland area of District 5, the Somerset KCTCS Campus used their 3-D printers to make headbands for face shields that Extension agents assembled while following CDC recommendations for social distancing and proper sanitizing.  Extension agents in District 5 have assembled more than 3,000 face shields. KCTCS quality checked and delivered the shields to health care facilities throughout the state. In a time of uncertainty and need, Extension has once again proven that we are well positioned to efficiently get the needed equipment into the hands of the people who need them and can be a trusted partner in addressing emerging needs.
