The Extension system is the world's largest non-formal educational system. Extension's hallmark is programming delivered by professionals to address the needs of the local community while also addressing state, national, and global issues. Our practical educational programs combine the needs of local citizens and communities with new research and technical information.
As Extension educators, we:
• Focus on critical economic, environmental, leadership, youth, and family issues.
• Engage people in lifelong learning.
• Apply knowledge and practical research to the diverse needs and interests of Ohioans in rural, suburban, and urban communities.
• Extend resources of The Ohio State University.
• Recruit and develop volunteers to multiply Extension's efforts while developing their leadership potential.
• Enhance teamwork through networking and connectedness.
• Link youth, family, and community needs to scholars in Ohio and nationwide.
• Teach with cutting-edge strategies using new technologies and approaches.
