Extension staff at each state's land grant university who are working in the area of children and youth are identified. NNCC unites the expertise of many of the nation's leading universities through the outreach system of Cooperative Extension. Our goal is to share knowledge about children and child care from the vast resources of the landgrant universities with parents, professionals, practitioners, and the general public. We network with committed individuals around the country to bring you practical information and resources that will be useful to you in your everyday work with children. Cooperative Extension has an 80 year history of working in the areas of child care and early childhood development.
