Such problems as the fol lowing were discussed: (1) What are the home living problems fac ing your families today? What can you do to help them solve them? (2) How may you effec tively cooperate with other agen cies in the community? (3) What will you include in your year’s program? How can you effective ly plan for and develop it? (4) What can you do to help promote better nutrition in your commu nity? (5) What can you do to promote better nutrition in your school?
