For a number of years, community partners and advisory groups have identified the need for a coordinated system for holiday assistance and outreach. Some families were not being served while others were being served multiple times by different sponsors. Clinton County Extension Family and Consumer Sciences facilitated a committee to create Operation Hometown Christmas. The purpose of Operation Hometown Christmas was to facilitate individuals, groups, businesses, churches, and families working together during the holiday season using one standard application for assistance, one master list for sponsors, and communicating more effectively. Eighteen committee members developed and marketed the process. Over 95 different sponsors participated to serve 414 children and adults throughout Clinton County. Families received more assistance than in the past as the result in the coordinated effort. Sponsors were pleased that an organized system was in place that avoided duplication of services. The community as a whole now recognizes that the program is in place and will be expanded upon next year. Extension’s role in facilitation resulted in meeting the needs of the community as well as assisting families that may be struggling financially during the pandemic.
