Who is Cornell Cooperative Extension?
Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) is a dynamic education system connecting Cornell's world-class research with regional and county-based educators and partners across the state. With a presence in every county and all five boroughs of New York City, CCE is uniquely positioned to tailor opportunities and resources to match the diverse and ever-evolving needs of individual communities across the state.
Our work
CCE partners with local, state, and federal government agencies, and is supported by the national land grant system and Cornell University. In fulfillment of Cornell's land grant mission, faculty, and staff --primarily from the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the College of Human Ecology -- collaborate with extension associates, agriculture specialists, CCE educators and staff, local partners, and volunteers across New York state to engage citizens and empower communities to transform and grow from the group up. The resulting education system is responsive, nimble, research-based, and locally-rooted. Extension educators develop programming that collects information and experience from their own communities to inform Cornell research and program development. Such a dynamic organization would not be possible without the dedicated staff, volunteers, and partnerships that power the CCE system.
