Home & Family

Our Home & Family program is dedicated to improving quality of life for families and individuals in our county. We work to strengthen relationships and improve financial stability for local families by offering practical, research-based education in areas such as financial literacy, parenting, creating healthy home environments, and consumer science, providing families with the information and tools they need to thrive.
