Vaccination Awareness: Knowledge-at-Noon Series for KSRE and Partners

Submitted by Elaine Johannes

Across most of Kansas, there is access to COVID-19 vaccination, but there are pockets where Kansans may not know where to go for their vaccination or they might be a bit hesitant to do so.

Join members of the KSRE EXCITE - Vaccinate with Confidence task force for a Knowledge at Noon: Vaccination Awareness series on May 24, and June 7, (12 - 1 p.m. CDT). Each noon-time session will feature information for KSRE professionals to share with clients and stakeholders, and will include time for discussion about vaccination in Kansas. The focus for each session is below with registration information. Once registered, zoom meeting details will be provided.

In the meantime, reputable vaccination resources, which have been vetted by the KSRE EXCITE task force, are available at KSRE EXCITE vaccination resources.

Task Force members are:
Justin Goodno, Chuck Otte, Sandra Wick, Diane Nielson, Denise Dias, Leah Robinson, Christine McPheter, Frances Graves, Rachael Clews, Connie Saltzer (IKC), Carlie Houchen (IKC), and Gayle Price and Elaine Johannes (co-facilitators).
