Hi everyone, I'm forwarding a message from another list:

I'm reaching out on behalf of the Hoosier Young Farmers Coalition, National
Young Farmers Coalition, and Not Our Farm to share a quick survey about how
farmers, farmworkers, and the general public are currently thinking about
bird flu (a.k.a. H5N1, HPAI, avian influenza).

In response to the recent rapid increase in bird flu cases in poultry,
cattle, and humans across the world, and especially in the United States, a
group of folks from Young Farmers <https://www.youngfarmers.org/
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.youngfarmers.org/__;!!Mak6IKo!L-S9jrbcCZmC8RJLpvtHi6ZaQvYg45tKRzVMB17YCUxfDOjyQdRj3sZD-qBMkOFGxGbvw-GuG30XxqkzzDVg0MK88XaF0O0$>>
and Not
Our Farm <https://www.notourfarm.org/
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.notourfarm.org/__;!!Mak6IKo!L-S9jrbcCZmC8RJLpvtHi6ZaQvYg45tKRzVMB17YCUxfDOjyQdRj3sZD-qBMkOFGxGbvw-GuG30XxqkzzDVg0MK8X9zGDgE$>>
are working to compile resources for
farmers and farmworkers to keep ourselves, our animals, and our communities
safe from the threat of infection and its cascading effects.

To help inform these resources, we are asking farmers, farmworkers, and the
general public about their experiences and understanding of bird flu.
Anyone is welcome to complete the survey, which is available in both
English and Spanish. Responses to the survey will be used to help guide the
creation of:

- A public information session on bird flu,
- Resources to learn more and reference as the situation develops, and
- PPE distribution program for farmworkers.

You can complete the survey here
<https://youngfarmers.jotform.com/250015076509047
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://youngfarmers.jotform.com/250015076509047__;!!Mak6IKo!L-S9jrbcCZmC8RJLpvtHi6ZaQvYg45tKRzVMB17YCUxfDOjyQdRj3sZD-qBMkOFGxGbvw-GuG30XxqkzzDVg0MK8pa7Ioak$>>.
The survey takes
approximately 5-15 minutes to complete.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Elston at
elston at youngfarmers.org.

With warmth,

Taylor & The Young Farmers & Not Our Farm teams


Best,
