Educating with Extension Newsletters

Each month, the Extension Service publishes a newsletter about its exciting programs and events, both past and upcoming. See what we are doing and how you can become involved. 

For our January 2026 newsletter, we featured an article written by Alicia Betancourt, Community and Family Agent, "Simple Money Saving New Year’s Resolutions." 

A new year is the perfect moment to reset your financial habits. You don’t need extreme budgets or complicated spreadsheets to make real progress—small, consistent changes can add up to meaningful savings over time. Below are practical, realistic New Year’s resolutions that help you keep more of your money without sacrificing your quality of life.
