Extension
The Department's Extension programs and other outreach educates constituents in Lincoln and across the state as well as national and international audiences. Outreach programs empower individuals, families, and communities to resolve social concerns.
Extension faculty serve their constituents by identifying the issues
and needs of Nebraskans in the global environment. This ever-changing
environment presents many challenges which are addressed through multi-disciplinary
approaches.
