Partnered for Success
University of Illinois Extension’s mission is to enable people to improve their lives through learning partnerships that put knowledge to work. Key partners in this effort are the local citizens who advise us and provide direction for Extension programming, ensuring that programs continue to meet critical needs.
The Extension Council is authorized by the University of Illinois Board of Trustees, in accordance with state law, to be actively involved in the operation of University of Illinois Extension. Extension Councils serve in an advisory role cooperating with Extension staff in planning, promoting, developing, implementing, evaluating, and financing an Extension program designed to meet the needs, interests, and resources of the local communities served.
