Spanning the Digital Divide: Extension Opportunities to Make a Difference (Extension Educators and other Extension Leaders Only)

The COVID-19 crisis has shown an even harsher light on the digital divide that already plagues the nation.  As individuals began efforts to work or learn from home, people that lack broadband access or skills struggle to keep up.  What can Cooperative Extension do to help bolster resources to these communities?  The National Digital Extension Education Team will share practical guidance into what has been successful in navigating these challenges.  Join us for a one hour webinar to explore together.

About the Extension Foundation

The Extension Foundation was formed in 2006 by Extension Directors and Administrators. 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.
