A new episode of "Montana PBS Reports: IMPACT" is set to air on Montana PBS at 7 p.m. on Thursday, February 27. This installment will delve into the staffing levels within the U.S. Forest Service, focusing particularly on how a hiring freeze instituted last fall has impacted the agency's seasonal workforce and affected outdoor recreation in Montana this winter.
Additionally, the episode will explore efforts to combat isolation and loneliness among seniors in Montana, especially in rural areas. This comes more than a year after the U.S. Surgeon General declared these issues a national epidemic.
