  • Remote learning has been ordered for all Elkhart County public schools this fall.

  • Elkhart County has joined rest of the state in moving to reopening stage 4.5. This includes new recommendations from the state and a new ECHD health order for public gatherings. Please look at the several new ECHD statements here.

  • 36 new cases were reported on Thursday. 
 
  • On June 29th, the Elkhart County Health Department issued a Face Covering Mandate effective on June 30th, 2020 (y en español). There is an FAQ available to learn more (español) and a sign is available to be posted at places of business (español).  The directive outlines how face coverings can help prevent transmission and how to use them properly. Remember, preventing the spread is not just about being responsible so that businesses and events can stay open but also protecting our more vulnerable residents.
