Spotlight Series: Daviess County

Our continuing "Spotlight Series": Daviess

Cooperative Extension Service provides a range of educational programming and activities to support the well-being of Kentuckians. One good example is in Daviess County where the FCS agent offered a lesson on manners during a formal dinner with students transitioning from college to the work place. The program was the final session of a leadership class held for 40 students. As a result of the program, almost half of those who responded to the survey 6 weeks following the program had changed the way they shake hands, 100% had the opportunity to put their new manners to use and 89% had shared the information with family and friends.
