Are you an urban extension professional? Are you excited to share what your urban community has to offer? Would you like to learn from others’ experiences in the urban setting? Would you enjoy exploring another cool Southern city?  If so, JOIN US for the 2025 National Urban Extension Leaders (NUEL) Southern and 1890’s Regional Conference!

Happening in the “Bull City” of Durham North Carolina from May 6-8, 2025, this NUEL conference provides extension professionals with an opportunity to grow as practitioners and educators in our vibrant urban environments across the southeast.

The conference theme: The power of WE: partnering for impact, reflects the ongoing and necessary work of collaboration and innovation required in our urban extension practice to make the biggest difference for the communities we serve.

The Request for Proposals (RFP) will out by January 21.  We will share more soon about accommodations and registration in Durham—part of the Research Triangle area of NC, along with Raleigh and Chapel Hill.  Your N.C. Cooperative Extension hosts at NC State University and NC A&T University are looking forward to seeing you in May!
