Community Development

The Community Resource Development Agent works in a number of priority areas. Backed by University of Wisconsin research, Community Development Agents cooperate with local government, civic organizations, businesses and community leaders to enhance local decision-making and help communities respond to new challenges and opportunities. These priorities change as local needs change. The mission of the UWEX Community Development Program is to strengthen people’s ability to identify and solve community problems through education, citizen participation, group process, and unbiased information – allowing residents to make informed decisions, resulting in better communities.
