For decades, this cooperative arrangement between the federal, state and county governments held strong with a shared understanding and a handshake. But a more formal arrangement was desired, so in 1957 a memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed by UNH and the County Conventions to establish County Extension Advisory Councils as the sponsor of Extension work. Now the two organizations negotiate and sign a MOU every six years.
Each signing reaffirms the Smith-Lever Act’s commitment to bringing cutting-edge research, trusted information and helpful advice to New Hampshire’s communities. In an era in which institutions change rapidly, UNH Cooperative Extension continues to fulfill its mission to unite state, county and university leaders under a common cause: helping New Hampshire residents be more successful in all areas of life.
