Cornell Cooperative Extension extends Cornell University’s land-grant programs to citizens all across New York State. An integrated network of professionals including campus-based faculty and staff, regionally deployed specialists and county-based educators and professional employees provide programs in five areas:

	Agriculture and Food Systems CCE supports a New York State agriculture industry that is diverse, sustainable, and profitable, and which produces a safe, reliable, healthy and local food supply.
	Community and Economic Vitality CCE engages New Yorkers in land-use training, inter-municipal collaboration on shared municipal services, leadership training, workforce development, and community decision-making on complex issues.
	Environment and Natural Resources CCE educates on a broad range of concerns: water resources, agricultural waste and land-use management, forestry, wildlife habitat, lawns and turf, invasive species, energy conservation and development of renewable energy sources.
	Nutrition and Healthy Families CCE programs aim to reduce the prevalence of childhood obesity and chronic disease through improved nutrition and health practices, to improve child and eldercare, to reduce environmental hazards, and to increase financial and health care literacy.
	Youth Development CCE’s 4-H Youth Development Programs reach urban, suburban and rural youth in three broad areas: Science, Technology and Engineering, Citizenship, and Healthy Lifestyles.
