Join the new Physical Activity Interest Group for Extension Professionals!

Last year, the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) collaborated with Connect Extension on a webinar, Increasing Physical Activity Among Older Adults. To continue the conversation and connect with more Extension professionals, we created a Physical Activity Interest Group on Connect Extension.

This group is for Extension professionals, community partners, and other affiliated professionals whose work involves physical activity promotion or programming, or anyone who is interested in learning more about physical activity! Group members can engage with others, exchange ideas and resources, and ask questions about promoting physical activity in their community.

We’re excited to have this new space to connect! We hope you’ll join the group and encourage you to share about the work you’re doing in your community.

Today, the Foundation partners with Cooperative Extension through liaison roles and a formal plan of work with the Extension Committee on Organization and Policy (ECOP) to increase system capacity while providing programmatic services, and helping Extension programs scale and investigate new methods and models for implementing programs. The Foundation provides professional development to Cooperative Extension professionals and offers exclusive services to its members. In 2020 and 2021, the Extension Foundation has awarded 85% of its direct funding back to the Cooperative Extension System, 100% of funds are used to support Cooperative Extension initiatives.
