Meeting Room A (Capacity : 50)

Join Patrice from OSU Extension, Lucas County for a brief highlight of Home Economics and Family and Consumer Sciences in the US, starting at the late 1800s.

Although memories of home economics class might seem quaint and old-fashioned, the topics of health and wellness, household finances and healthy relationships are just as important today as they’ve been at any point in history.
