Building a strong family is an investment in the future

"Raising Kids, Eating Right, Spending Smart, Living Well" is the national marketing campaign for Extension Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS), and it is what FCS Extension Educators across the nation teach on a daily basis.
We share information, education and options that help address challenging issues in life. When people ask me what I do as a Family and Consumer Science Educator, my quick response is I teach life skills.
Those skills and methods we need to accomplish the tasks at all phases of life, like getting along in a family, choosing and preparing food for meals, balancing our budgets or saving for future goals and in general, living well.
