The Collective for Health Equity and Well-Being

Cooperative Extension’s Collective for Health Equity and Well-Being is a community of Extension personnel and their partners united by their shared commitment to advancing health equity and well-being. Members work together to support the implementation of Cooperative Extension’s National Framework for Health Equity and Well-Being (2021) to ensure that all people can be as healthy as they can be.

eXtension Fellowships in Health and Well Being

 

I am pleased to announce that we have initiated a search to fill two open eXtension fellowships focused on health and well being.  The work of the fellows will broadly focus on building the capacity of the Cooperative Extension System  to ensure that all people have an equal opportunity to experience optimal health and well being across the lifespan.  Much of this will be accomplished through a Connect Extension subgroup where fellows will work as a team to foster identification and sharing of programmatic resources, expertise and collaboration around priority health themes.   We anticipate that the successful applicant will devote roughly one day per week to systemwide work related to health and well being as specified in a fixed-term contract of one year.  Applicants should submit a letter of interest to Brenna Kotar by August 28, 2020.  Questions regarding the fellowships can be directed to Roger Rennekamp at rogerrennekamp@extension.org

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.
