Extension is a cooperative partnership that began in 1914 to provide all citizens with the access to knowledge generated by land grant universities. Extension cooperates with federal, state and county partners working to identify local needs and provide research based educational materials to meet those needs.
In Stark County, key issues have been identified as the environment, economics, family, individual life, youth development, and leadership.
OSU Extension groups its programs into four major areas. The actual educational programs cut across these groupings and often stretch the conventional definition of each.
