For those of you who responded, thank you very much. We are bringing that information gathering phase to a close and beginning our focus group meetings in August at a location near you (to be determined) to hear your direct feedback in more detail. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>For those of you who have not heard about the focus group recruitment, we are inviting your civic association members and associates who live in the study area to participate in one of the focus group meetings for this purpose. Attached is a flyer with the basic information. The focus group meetings should be an interesting way to identify issues with access to nutritious, affordable, culturally appropriate, and sustainably produced food in the county, and we will provide refreshments, gifts, and door prizes at each focus group meeting. Please pass the word on for residents of the study area (see map) and contact me at 301-952-3580, <a href="mailto:Fatimah.Hasan@ppd.mncppc.org">Fatimah.Hasan@ppd.mncppc.org</a>, or Ms. Sharon Williams, Planning Intern on our staff, at 301-750-8173 or at <a href="mailto:Sharon-E.Williams@mncppc.onmicrosoft.org">Sharon-E.Williams@mncppc.onmicrosoft.org</a>.
