Family & Consumer Sciences Brand

In 2010, AAFCS invited the Alliance organizations to be a part of the Family & Consumer Sciences Branding Initiative, to develop messages to clearly communicate the value of the Family & Consumer Sciences field, as well as an icon that would convey the essence of the field. The first set of brand key messages and icon were released in 2011, followed by revised key brand messages and additional icons in 2018.
