Guide to Kansas Family Supports
We all go through struggles with our children, and wonder where to turn for help. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment recently published a brochure that lists programs and organizations to support families.
The Guide to Kansas Family Supports lists prenatal resources, children and family resources, as well as a number of additional resources that can help you and your family. You can download a copy from this web page, or stop by your local Southwind Extension office.
