The Jackson-Madison County Regional Health Department along with representatives from the University of Tennessee/Tennessee State University Extension office will distribute free washable, reusable cloth face masks in Jackson, according to a Monday morning news release from the department.
Masks will be available for pick-up at First Presbyterian Church on Wednesday, Aug. 12 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. while supplies last. The church is located at 1573 North Highland Avenue in Jackson. Please use the rear entrance on Coatsland Drive to access the distribution line.
