Author: Alethea Price

Planning Unit: Boyle County CES

Major Program: Community Leadership Development

Plan of Work: Leaders Develop and Expand Leadership Skills

Outcome: Initial Outcome

United Human Services (UHS) is the inter agency group who meets monthly to talk about resources and needs in the Boyle County Community. Some members of this group include Bluegrass Community Action Partnership, Salvation Army, Boyle County Senior Center, representation from all Family Resource Centers, Churches, Food Banks, the Housing Authority, Ephraim McDowell Hospital and more. This group meets monthly to discuss needs in the community and how to better connect residents to these resources. When leadership of UHS stepped down 2 years ago the FCS agent stepped into a co-chair position.

It's extremely important that we stay in constant contact. During the pandemic there were so many changes to the services offered in the community. People still needed to know about them. The FCS Agent helped to facilitate an online socially distanced safe meeting on zoom.

Each month UHS collaborates to create a newsletter that lists resources and contact information in an easily accessible place. It's distributed all over the county. UHS was able to stay in touch during the pandemic to continue to reach citizens we serve.
