Building Leadership Capacity
Family and Consumer Sciences Extension programs empower individuals with practical skills that foster confidence, leadership, and community engagement. Through hands-on learning, participants gain tools to strengthen their local economies, support meaningful community initiatives, and enhance the quality of life in their county and our state. Many go on to serve as dedicated volunteers, contributing their time and talents to boards and civic groups—helping build vibrant, resilient communities across the Commonwealth.
