Cooperative Extension at N.C. A&T is changing the world, one community at a time, right here in the Triad and beyond. Our students and statewide staff provide research-based information to North Carolinians who have social, cultural, and economic barriers to upward mobility, enabling them to make decisions that improve their communities and lives. Cooperative Extension serves as the educational outreach arm of the nation's land-grant universities. North Carolina A&T State University was established as a land-grant university under the Second Morrill Act of 1890, which expanded the land grant system to serve minority communities better. And Cooperative Extension was established more than 100 years ago. Our program works as an integrated, nationwide educational and outreach network that improves lives - particularly in rural areas - by working with farmers, families, youth, and communities. N.C. A&T's Cooperative Extension division includes subject-matter specialists, county-based agents, and paraprofessionals who deliver programs through centers across the state, including Guilford County, the City of Burlington, and areas from the North Carolina coast to the edges of the Cherokee reservation in the mountains. Extension professionals use various delivery methods - from one-on-one demonstrations to virtual videoconferencing and online computer-assisted training - to address the unique needs of individuals and communities with limited resources.
