Spotlight Series: Hancock County

Our continuing "Spotlight Series": Hancock

Cooperative Extension Service provides a range of educational programming and activities to support the well-being of Kentuckians. One good example is in Hancock County where the FCS agent facilitated the True Colors Basic Awareness seminar to 78 local and regional community leaders/members who were interested in learning to bridge gaps in communication; respect themselves and others; and create a climate for effective leadership, teamwork, and learning. Ninety-one percent of attendees were able to better identify their own leadership skills, 97% stated that they would be able to identify potential leadership skills in others, 94% said that they would be able to work, communicate, and interact with others in a more positive way.
