MORGAN COUNTY HHS - HEALTH & HUMAN SCIENCES

Purdue Extension Health and Human Sciences provides education to individuals and communities of all ages in Indiana's 92 counties. We bring university information-both in person and online-to help people strengthen relationships, eat smart, improve health, and achieve financial wellness.

The four pillars Health & Human Sciences focuses on are:

  • Food

  • Health

Eat Right- What we eat impacts our health and wellbeing. To help prevent and manage chronic diseases, HHS Extension offers guidance on healthy food choices and meal preparation.

Strengthen Families- Strong individuals and families build a foundation for healthy communities and a productive society. HHS Extension programs and resources address issues across the lifespan, including child care, school readiness, relationship and aging.

Spend Smart- Everyone benefits from learning how to make smart choices that maximize their finances and household resources. HHS Extension delivers best practices for all of your money management needs.
