Extension Homemakers Creed
I BELIEVE in the Extension Homemaker Club program and accept the
responsibilities it offers to be helpful to others and to provide for continuous
improvement in all levels of living.
I BELIEVE that through working together in a group we can enlarge the
opportunities, enrich the life of our people, and create a more contented family
and community life.
I BELIEVE in my own work as a homemaker. I believe that the greatest
force that molds character comes from the home and I pledge myself to create a
home which is morally wholesome, spiritually satisfying and physically healthful
and convenient.
Mission Statement
The mission of this organization is to empower individuals and families to
improve their quality of living through continuing education, leadership
development, and community service.
Program Emphasis
A new organizational structure was approved at the 1999 Annual State Meeting.
This new structure provided a more streamlined approach to achieve the mission
of the organization.
On March 13-14, 2001, Presidents and Vice Presidents of County EH Councils
participated in a process to define the program focus for 2001-2003. Members had
the opportunity to evaluate issues, define, and select a program focus that will
address the needs of a majority of the members of the Extension Homemakers
organization. Because of this process, the following education emphases were
decided:
- The major program will be Economic Security issues that affect
families, and
- The minor program emphasis will be on Individual and Family Relationships.
