Welcome to Kentucky Family Policy
This blog is dedicated to examining issues facing the Commonwealth of Kentucky and providing a nonpartisan, family perspective on public policy making. We hope to provide a forum for Kentuckians to review and discuss current legislative actions and the issues such actions are attempting to address.

Americans spend thousands each year on cleaning products, many of which can be made at home with common household products such as vinegar, baking soda, bleach, alcohol, and ammonia. A lesson, “Home Cleaning Products: Safe and Green”, was presented to 212 Extension Homemakers. During the Extension Service Spring into Green program, one young homemakers club set up a display and distributed green cleaning products recipes. As a result, 50% reported gaining knowledge about green home cleaning products, including cost-effectiveness and reduction of exposure to chemicals. Fifty percent tried and preferred one or more home green cleaning products. Participants estimated saving at least 50% or more by making their own cleaning products.
