What We Do
Cooperative Extension, an outreach arm of The University of Arizona, is "Improving Lives, Communities and the Economy" by serving as a statewide network of knowledgeable faculty and staff that provides lifelong educational programs for all Arizonans. We are part of a nationwide educational network of scientists and educators who help people solve problems and put knowledge to use. With offices in all 15 Arizona counties, we bring scientific knowledge to people every day to enhance their work and enrich their lives. Cooperative Extension implements 4-H positive youth development programs that provide mentorship and life skills to youth across Coconino County
