Michigander: A PBS American Portrait Story
by Oster, Adam (MDE) 06 Jan '21

06 Jan '21

What does it mean to be a Michigander? The diversity of our state presents countless ways that question could be answered by people of Michigan. PBS American Portrait is a nation-wide initiative to collect stories from all over the country to create a portrait of what it really means to be American today. WKAR<https://www.wkar.org/> in Lansing (operated by Michigan State University) is gathering stories to showcase Michigan's part of the portrait. You can find more information about the program through the attached PDF and by going to https://tv.wkar.org/americanportrait/. You can also find content to share about from WKAR's Facebook and Twitter accounts: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WKARPUBLICMEDIA Twitter: https://twitter.com/WKAR Narratives often go beyond the books on our shelves. Help share the story of our state and what it means to be a Michigander. Thanks! Adam Adam Oster, Community Engagement Librarian Library of Michigan Michigan Department of Education 702 W.

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is distributing 3.5 million free masks as part of the state’s Mask Up, Mask Right campaign. Free KN95 masks provided by MDHHS will be distributed by community organizations, including local MDHSS offices, health departments and Area Agency on Aging offices. “We are urging Michiganders to Mask Up and Mask Right to protect themselves, their loved ones and their communities from COVID-19,” said MDHHS Director Robert Gordon. “Wearing the right kind of mask is important. Today’s distribution of effective masks will help more Michiganders limit the spread of COVID to save lives and get back to normal sooner.” Masking right includes wearing one of three options of masks that provide stronger protection: three-layered washable cloth face coverings, three-layered disposable masks or KN95 masks. It also includes wearing the mask correctly: having it secured over the nose and mouth and snugly fitting without gaps. KN95 masks are similar to but should not be confused with N95 masks that are intended for health care workers who are engaged as part of their work in higher-risk settings. In addition to MDHHS offices<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2…>, local health departments<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2…> and Area Agency on Aging offices<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2…>, the free masks are available from Community Action Agencies<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2…>, and Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2…>. Some agencies will further distribute the masks to local partners such as homeless shelters. Residents who need masks can pick one up from partner sites across the state. Find a distribution site at Michigan.gov/MaskUpMichigan <https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2…> or call the COVID-19 hotline at 888-535-6136.
