Guest Speakers
Joyce B. Miles, CFCS In celebration of the AAFCS Centennial, Joyce Miles is talking about the history of family and consumer sciences
to audiences across the country by telling the remarkable story of Ellen Swallow Richards (1842-1911), a pioneering visionary in this field.
Miles brings to life this progressive woman whose achievements a century ago seem surprisingly contemporary—nutrition education,
water-quality testing, and promoting science education for women, to name just a few.
John Johnson, CEC, CCE, AAC– Excellence in Education
