"I’m a food expert and I run a company called City Food Tours. We specialize in doing tasting tours for students, showing them handmade, artisan foods and explaining how they’re made, their history, etc. We do tours for family & consumer science teachers, and being able to reach more of these educators is important."

To help raise the visibility of the field, AAFCS is offering a number of official products with the new Family & Consumer Sciences icon on them. You can see the notecards (left) and many more FCS and AAFCS items in our online store.
For more than 100 years, the American Association of Family & Consumer Sciences (AAFCS) has provided leadership and support to professionals whose work assists individuals, families, and communities in making informed decisions about their well being, relationships, and resources to achieve optimal quality of life.
AAFCS is the only professional association that connects family and consumer sciences (FCS) students and professionals from both multiple practice settings and content areas. Our members are educators, administrators and managers, human service and business professionals, researchers, community volunteers, and consultants. They provide research-based knowledge about the topics of everyday life, including human development, personal and family finance, housing and interior design, food science, nutrition and wellness, textiles and apparel, and consumer issues.
