Three hundred and thirty letters with brochures were mailed to all K-12 agriculture teacher positions across the state of Virginia the week of January 10th. To follow up on these letter introductions, AgrAbility Virginia Program Director Dr. Kim Niewolny will be presenting on AgrAbility Virginia at the 2022 Virginia Agriculture Education Winter Conference February 4-5 in Staunton, Virginia. Staff will also have an exhibit table during the conference.
AgrAbility Virginia program partner Easterseals UCP launched a JustGiving campaign to raise funds for the Assistive Technology Fund. This fund, housed within the non-profit partner's organization, will be used when farmer clients have limited resources and are unable to purchase needed assistive technologies.
