Exploring School-Extension Partnerships (With a Focus on Parenting Education)
This extension project seeks to understand the various pathways to fostering partnerships with schools to develop and pilot-test strategies and tools for creating structured long-term partnerships between CCE county extension associations and schools in New York. The specific focus of this project is on parenting education and learning more about school partnerships that have formed around other educational programming (e.g., after school programs, youth development) to identify strategies, guidance, and successful practices. As part of this project, we have worked with CCE parent educators in Livingston, Oneida and Orange counties to develop case studies for educators to use as guides for developing CCE extension-school partnerships.
