If you want to make a difference in your community...if you want to improve the lives of others, of families and society, the Family and Consumer Studies program can help you do it.

The goal of our program is to provide individuals with the tools necessary to make a positive impact in their communities.

The dedicated student will emerge empowered to affect public policies concerning familes, consumers, children, students, and society as a whole.

The curriculum is designed to provide an opportunity for the student to complete lower division courses that may lead to an occupational certificate, an Associate or Arts degree, and/or transfer to a four-year college/university.*

Students may earn:

• Skill Award (14-15 units)
• Certificate of Completion (22-31 units)
• Associate of Arts degree (approx. 60 units)

*It is important to consult a counselor to set a program for the coursework required to achieve your Associate of Arts degree or transfer eligibility to a four-year college/university.
