WORKING TOGETHER TO REDUCE THE TRANSMISSION OF COVID-19

Healthcare and educator partners in Santa Barbara County have come together to educate, unite and incentivize all of Santa Barbara County to join Masked and Mighty to work together to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, reopen more businesses, keep the population healthy, keep hospital beds open, and get our kids back to in-person school.
