Colleagues,

I am writing to you with excitement about our new EXCITE H5N1 initiative. The overall goal of the project is to, in collaboration with the National Center for Farmworker Health and USDA partners, increase Extension Agent and Dairy Farmer Knowledge of H5N1 and increase prevention practices on-farm to reduce human disease related to H5N1.

To introduce this initiative and to share best current knowledge and resources, we will be hosting a nationwide webinar to update Extension professionals who are working with the dairy industry and the producers in their states.

The webinar will be held December 12 from 2 to 4 PM Eastern. Topics will include:

●      Introduction of EXCITE H5N1 team

●      Update regarding known prevalence and geographic profile

●      Critical research updates

●      Key aspects of prevention and early intervention

●      Key resources which can be shared with clientele

●      Invitation to future monthly H5N1 professional development offerings

●      Next steps for support and funded partners

The Zoom link for registration is included below:

We are hoping to reach as many Extension professionals working in this area as possible, including agents/educators, field specialists, and state specialists. Please forward this invitation to your state program leaders and encourage them to expedite the sharing of this invitation to their statewide teams.

Thank you in advance for your prompt assistance and support!

Sincerely,
