Randolph County has two EHC and one project clubs. The objectives of the Extension
Homemakers focus on three broad areas - education programs, community service, and
leadership development. An EHC is a group of people who meet on a regular basis to
receive up-to-date research-based information relating to the family, home, and community.
Anyone who wishes may join; it is a nondiscriminatory group.
For more information on EHC programs and services offered by the Randolph County Extension Service, feel free to contact
Pamela Ray, FCS agent, at (870) 892-4504 or pray@uada.edu
