- Let’s face it, most of us have at least one space (or several) that we’d like to have more organized. In fact, a recent survey about clutter found that 84 percent of Americans are concerned their home isn’t organized or clean enough. And more than half of them reported that it causes them stress. Tackling clutter can seem overwhelming and sometimes getting started is the hardest part. Join Jennifer Brown from the N.C. Cooperative Extension on Monday, April 28 at 10:45 a.m. at the Granville Senior Center in Oxford to learn some simple steps you can take to begin to tackle areas of clutter that may be bothering you. No guilt, just ideas!
- Our next Diabetes Prevention Program is set to start in July.

If you want to learn more, register for one of our Information Sessions at go.ncsu.edu/diabetesinfo or call (336) 597-2204 x2277.
