Our Mission is...
Engaging our diverse communities to responsibly provide quality
opportunities and services that matter.
All visitors to County buildings over the age of two, regardless of vaccination status, must wear a face covering unless the individual has a disability that prevents them from wearing a face covering.
COVID-19 vaccines are widely available for people 12 years and older. You must be 12 years of age to receive the Pfizer vaccine and 18 years of age to receive the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines per the FDA. If you still need a vaccine, please contact a local clinic or pharmacy. Story County Public Health is providing vaccines to the general public as well. Call 1-800-945-8563 to make an appointment.
