Since 1914, Virginia Cooperative Extension (VCE) has connected the research knowledge of Virginia’s land-grant universities — Virginia Tech and Virginia State University — with the needs of communities across the commonwealth. With 107 offices, one in every county and in many cities, VCE delivers solutions in agriculture, natural resources, health, youth development, and community vitality. This 10-year strategic plan provides a forward-looking roadmap for VCE to expand its impact, build organizational strength, and respond to the evolving needs of Virginians.
