Family Living & Nutrition Education

UW- Extension Family Living Programs respond to community needs with research-based education and partnerships that support Wisconsin family and communites.

• Families and Communities
  Creating strong families that serve as the foundation for community life by enhancing family relationships, parenting, child development and the community institutions that promote family well-being.

• Food and Nutrition
  Promoting healthy, well-nourished families as they learn to manage food dollars, plan nutritious meals, and purchase, prepare, and serve food that is safe to eat.

• Family Economics
  Helping families meet future needs while keeping pace with day-to-day expenses and addressing the basics of earning, spending, saving, investing, health care, and housing issues.

Washburn County Association for Home & Community Education (HCE) is a service organization whose mission is to provide educational opportunities, improve leadership skills of members and offer service to communities.  Affiliated with Wisconsin Association for Home and Community Education ”Little Readers” is one of the service projects of Washburn County HCE that provides free books to children who might not otherwise be able to have new books of their own.
