Home Life - Evelyn Dolby, Department Chair

The Home Life Department includes three programs that acquaint members with contemporary issues facing their communities and offer resources to enable clubwomen to improve their communities through volunteerism.

• The Focus on Health Program provides important information about current health issues facing women with the objective of improving the health and quality of life of clubwomen. We has strong partnerships with various nonprofit and health organizations to achieve this goal.

• The Helping Hands Program educates members about organizations that improve the lives of those in need and provides opportunities for clubwomen to get involved within their communities. From Canine Companions for Independence to Easter Seals, the Helping Hands program strives to provide diverse and meaningful volunteer opportunities for clubwomen.

• Our Focus on Financial Issues Program encourages members to educate themselves and others about financial issues, such as credit scores, philanthropic giving, identity theft, and social security. Through this program, clubs hold workshops, invite financial advisors to meetings, and openly discuss money-related issues facing American women and families today.
