Working To Meet The
Needs Of Today's Families
Statewide and on a county
level, investing in family living education today saves money
tomorrow. Strong families serve as the backbone for strong Wisconsin
communities. Society benefits when families are self-sufficient
and do not need public and private assistance.
The Marathon County
Cooperative Extension Family Living Program helps families thrive
in a rapidly changing world. Backed by research, family living
faculty and academic staff work with communities to promote family
strengths and become positive environments for family life.
