A wide variety of programs are available for children, families and seniors from University of Illinois Extension Knox County.
Finding Harmony in Managing Work & Life
If you talk with parents, the extra time spent with the kids comes from personal time available to parents. Parents are spending less time on themselves. Many parents do not want to go out on a date or even exercise because they feel guilty taking time away from their children. Parents are also spending less time on housework, but that doesn't seem to bother most people.

Local Food Systems
A local food system (LFS) is more than farmers markets or roadside produce stands. A LFS is a network of producers, processors, retailers, and consumers that work together in a specific geographic area to produce, distribute, and consume locally grown and processed foods.
