Counties and states are incentivizing vaccination Will Teton County?

As other counties and states make headlines by tying COVID-19 vaccinations to benefits like free drinks, Teton County is wondering what role it can play in incentivizing people to get vaccinated against COVID-19. No decisions have been made and the Teton County Board of County Commissioners is not unanimous in what it wants to do, if anything. But it did begin the conversation Monday when Commissioner Luther Propst asked to hear more from the Teton County Health Department about what would be helpful. After that morning’s meeting, Propst told the News&Guide he didn’t want a resurgence of the virus. COVID-19 case levels have been low, with the county reporting a seven-day average of daily new cases at 2.3 Sunday. That’s the lowest level seen in Jackson Hole since the end of June 2020, when cases began to climb towards their summer peak.

Childcare has exploded into the national conversation for all the reasons that it has been part of the local conversation for years: There simply isn’t enough quality, affordable care to support our working families. Childcare is also a flashpoint because it brings all of our assumptions and expectations around gender and families into conversation (and sometimes conflict) with our economic realities. Few families can afford for mothers not to work. Nationally, mothers are the equal, primary, or sole earners in 40% of all families. Here in Teton County, the Baseline Childcare Inventory shows that families pay twice the national average — 15% of their incomes — to cover childcare expenses, and 84% of families with children have all parents in the workforce (compared to 71% nationally).

County commission says ok to human service budgets

County commissioners intend to fully fund budget requests from Teton County nonprofits that provide senior care, shelter for teens in crisis and subsidized mental health care, among other services. “I think that’s great,” said Deidre Ashley, executive director of the Jackson Hole Community Counseling Center, one of the nonprofits set to receive its full request for the upcoming fiscal year. Ashley serves on the Wyoming Association of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Centers, a state association with directors from other Wyoming community mental health centers like the Community Counseling Center. She said that Jackson and Teton County “by far are the most supportive” local governments in the Equality State.

County commission will meet in-person starting Monday, masks not required

As with all things in the COVID-19 pandemic, the Teton County Board of County Commissioners’ in-person presence in their meeting chambers has ebbed and flowed. On Monday, that flow will continue when the board convenes in-person for its regularly-scheduled voucher meeting. Commission Chair Natalia D. Macker said the commission plans to do so going forward. “It does not have an end date at this point,” she said of the in-person plans. The county commission has been meeting virtually for months because of the COVID-19 pandemic, holding court over Zoom. It recently moved to a hybrid model, with some budget meetings being held in-person. Commissioners have, however, dialed in virtually at times.
