 Registration for the Big Blue Book Club, a statewide book club through the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service, is now open. The first reading of the year features Kansas author Sarah Smarsh and her book Heartland, a memoir of working hard and being broke in the richest country on earth. The Big Blue Book Club is for anyone that wants to participate, which is another thing that I love so much about it. So anyone can sign up. You can register through our Facebook page. Our FCS assistant, Candace May, has been sharing all the information about it. So you can sign up with the link on our Facebook page. Anyone can do it across the state, anyone in the community. And the even cooler thing about this is that you can take advantage of free resources through the Johnson County Public Library and have access to these materials, so it can virtually be completely free for you. Appalachian Community Care offers outpatient medication assisted treatment for addiction, counseling, and behavioral play therapy for children, accepting Medicare and all major insurance. Recovery is hard, regret is harder. Appalachian Community Care, Pikeville, Whitesburg, 606-432-5660. Find them on Facebook. The club will meet via Zoom, April 11th, 18th, and 25th to discuss the book and glean insight from the participants across the state. So the book focuses on the author's memoir about growing up in poverty. And so she talks about how she grew up super poor even though we live in the richest country in the world. And she's like a fifth generation wheat farmer in Kansas, and she talks about all of the intergenerational poverty that her family has experienced. And so I think it's super excited for it. I'm super excited to talk about it throughout the community with those that are participating in it, but also just to hear perspectives from across the state.
