For example, family counseling can be found under the categories: Mental Health and Family Services. Our goal is to cross reference the material so that whatever your need, you can find a resource.This resource guide was compiled in January 1, 2018 by the Taylor County Extension and Outreach Office in Bedford, Iowa.*For additional resources or having trouble reaching any of these numbers, Dial 2-1-1. ................
