A Fair-ly Easy Vaccination

Established in the 1960s as part of President Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty, Newcap, Inc. now serves ten counties across Wisconsin. In March 2020, the non-profit held a resource fair in Brown County where eleven vendors offered information, food, and other resources in Spanish and English. Among the varied resources were COVID-19 vaccinations, bilingual nurses and even a success coach. A young mother too busy to arrange a vaccination appointment was thrilled to discover she could get vaccinated while at the resource fair, and left happily with a bandage on her arm.
