Abstract
Living in today's complex world and facing pressures from outside and within has created a situation that finds many of America's families in stress. There are no boundaries, for such families exist in all segments of society-- among the urban and rural, the rich and poor. What role can and should Extension perform to provide preventive measures that will enable familes to cope with and avoid many stressful situations? The authors share findings from an in-depth study involving 30 Midwest families and discuss implications for programming in Extension to strengthen the quality of family life.
