Engagement & UF / IFAS Extension Program
Sign up for a webinar and learn about what other organizations are doing across the state . The University of Florida / IFAS Extension Program is another great resource . Established by the Smith-Lever Act of 1914 , it is a partnership between state land grant universities , the United States Department of Agriculture ( USDA ) and county governments . All these groups share in the planning , financing , and operation of extension programs . For example , in Florida , the Cooperative Extension Service is administered by the University of Florida .
If you have a group in your neighborhood or want to help your young family members get involved in community organizing , UF / IFAS Extension and the youth organization 4-H ( https :// 4-h . org /) provide a workbook with tips and activities about exploring citizenship and creating groups .
No matter what course you follow or which topic you research , share your findings with your neighbors and the NICE Office .
