Jasper - The 12th and 13th Dubois County Relocation Impact Grants have been awarded.

Sarah Fallon has been awarded the twelfth Dubois County Relocation Impact Grant. Sarah is relocating from the Akron, Ohio area to Jasper. She was looking for a fresh start and was drawn to the area due to the abundance of outdoor recreation.

Fallon works remotely as a project manager for an engineering firm. This grant opportunity provides assistance to Sarah in establishing her new life in Dubois County.

Christopher Moore has been awarded the 13th Dubois County Relocation Impact Grant.

Christopher has recently ended his service with the Marines. He’s relocating with his family from North Carolina to Jasper. Christopher is originally from Gulf Port, Mississippi and his wife, Jaiden (Kemp) is originally from Huntingburg. The couple, along with their new son Vincent, decided to relocate to Dubois County to be closer to Jaiden’s family.

Moore will be employed by Meyer Distributing. Jaiden has her CNA license and will be seeking employment in healthcare. Christopher and Jaiden are looking forward to being near family and raising their son in a safe community with a great school system.
