To better serve all Nebraskans, Nebraska Extension has organized Extension Educators into Accountability Regions. Each Educator has a group of counties where they are expected to connect with clientele in their focus area. They provide a strong linkage to Extension programs, products, and training for businesses, organizations, and communities.
