Call nowAs an Extension educator, my prime concern is people. I believe it is my responsibility to give the best of my ability and develop myself to be an effective educator. I accept the opportunity to empower individuals, families, and communities to meet their needs and goals through a learning partnership. May I always be willing to accept the challenges of the changing times.
