The Independent Living strand introduces interns to gain knowledge in six areas of home economics, namely:
 
  • Education and Community awareness
  • Home Management and Design
  • Arts and Crafts (sewing and textiles)
  • Basic Budgeting
  • Health & Hygiene
  • Cooking 
 
The main goals of Independent Living are: (1) to help interns prepare themselves for home and family living with focus on personal well-being and development; and (2) to provide certain experiences which can help prepare interns for professional home economics employment.
