Finding personal finance information is very easy through the "Financial Security for All" eXtension site (www.csrees.usda.gov/financialsecurity). It is an online one-stop-shop for the entire U.S. Cooperative Extension System in personal finance and several other subject-matter areas, with more being added in the near future. Programs, information, and featured resources in personal finance are constantly being reviewed and added to the site.

In addition, you can contact your local Cooperative Extension office. Look in the phone book under the county government section. Or use the CSREES Family Economics Extension and Academic Programs map www.csrees.usda.gov/Extension/index.html, designed for locating personal finance programs in each state. (Tip: Scroll down from the map to see the whole list of programs without having to click state by state.)

Take advantage of what your local Extension office has to offer, but don't let geography limit you. As long as you can surf the Internet, you can access materials and resources from Extension programs nationwide.
