The Department of Family and Community Health Sciences (FCHS), a part of Rutgers Cooperative Extension, promotes health and wellness through education, research, and collaboration with outreach in food, nutrition, food security, and healthy lifestyles.
FCHS faculty and staff work in neighborhoods throughout Gloucester County to create opportunities for people, communities, and organizations to explore how science-based knowledge can improve physical and social wellbeing.

We develop programs and initiatives that teach families, schools, and communities how to eat nutritiously, support wellness, increase physical activity, and achieve food security. We offer programs for adults and youth. Many programs are free or low-cost.
FCHS faculty and staff work with schools, businesses, and groups of all sizes. Our customized programs support Gloucester County residents in making healthy, sustainable change. We bring our programs to you and work at your site. Contact FCHS today to learn more about our services.
