Living Well Wednesday Returns in September

Fentanyl and opioid awareness; recognizing, avoiding, and reporting scams; and the negative health effects of energy drinks are the topics being covered this fall when Kansas State University's Living Well Wednesday webinar series returns. The free webinars are the third Wednesday of each month from September through November. The sessions begin at 12:10 p.m., with the virtual room opening at noon. K-State Extension northeast area family and consumer sciences specialist, Sharolyn Jackson, says the Fall series continues to focus on topics that highlight the work Extension agents are doing in communities across Kansas. Sound Living is a weekly public affairs program addressing issues related to families and consumers. It is hosted by Jeff Wichman. Each episode shares the expertise of K-State specialists in fields such as child nutrition, food safety, adult development and aging, youth development, family resource management, physical fitness and more.
