University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service is very proud to have faculty in every county of the state who live and work with the citizens they serve. Extension educational programs touch all segments of our society: youth, families, community and, yes, farmers. The Extension faculty work hard to meet the needs of the people they serve, leaving nothing undone that might contribute toward success. Our classrooms are found in open fields or on the tailgate of a pickup. You will find us among Arkansas' 33 million acres of crops, livestock and natural resources. You will find us in conference centers and public schools, community centers and courthouses, in the classroom and in the lab. (http://www.uaex.edu/about_us.htm)

ICYMI (In Case You Missed It)
Community Conversation: Human Trafficking 📢

On August 5th, the Ouachita County Extension Homemakers Council hosted an important conversation on Human Trafficking.

We came together to learn, raise awareness, recognize the signs, and discuss how we can help protect those who are vulnerable.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this conversation meaningful! A huge thank you to Camden Police Department’s Officer Boggs for jumping into action for our conversation. We were also fortunate to have the Women’s Crisis Center’s Human Trafficking Program bring very valuable information to the event. It’s great to know that we have such a strong resource for this serious matter. Great job EHC! And let’s not forget to thank Camden Fairview School District for allowing us to have the Community Conversation at Garrison Auditorium. This is what coming together in our community is all about! Kudos to Ouachita County!
