  7. Purposes and Goals of CEC • Needs Identification – issues awareness, priority setting, goals • Program Implementation – plan, program development, implementation and evaluation • Promotion – communication, advocacy • Program Participation – ensuring broad-based programs available to all

  8. CEC Membership • Representatives of program councils/committees • Individuals representing the broader community • An emphasis on broadening the base of CEC membership (KRS 164.625 states that the CEC shall be comprised of 15-40 citizens in the county in which the Extension district is located) • A rotation system implemented to allow new membership • Training for advisory leadership coordinated through District Directors to agents

  9. State Extension Council • 28 – 4 representatives from each of the 7 districts • 7 – 1 at-large representative per district • 3-4 – presidents of State Program Councils • Total of 39-42(officers may serve in addition to delegates from their district)

  10. Purpose of State Extension Council The purpose of the State Extension Council will be… • Stakeholder merit review of program issues related to a state Plan of Work • Communications/Public Relations • Training for leadership roles • Advocacy of Cooperative Extension support, coordinated with CARET

  11. State Extension Council will function by: • Committee work and assignments throughout the year • Providing stakeholder merit review of programs identified by Regional Issues and Program Committees • Providing leadership development opportunities for State Extension Council representatives from each region

  12. Kentucky CARET • Council on Agriculture Research, Extension, and Teaching • At least six delegates from Extension • Advisory/advocacy for full scope of the land grant mission: Research, Extension, and Teaching

  13. Program Advisory Councils • Each agent will have a county program council (or council committee). • Program councils are subordinate to the County Extension Council. • Representatives from the program councils will be on the County Extension Council. • All program councils may not have the same structure beyond the county level. (In this time of transition, flexibility is vital). • Contact agents may be assigned to work with multi-county, region, or district program coordination.
