WVU’s Clay County Extension Office is part of the national land-grant system. Each office has the same mission as its foundation: to help people put knowledge to work.

Part of the National Cooperative Extension System
With over 3000 county offices in the USA, the National Cooperative Extension System is the local front door for many citizens to their state land-grant institutions. All universities engage in research and teaching, but the nation’s more than 100 land-grant colleges and universities including WVU, have another critical mission: Extension. Extension means reaching out, and along with teaching and research land-grant institutions extend their resources, solving public needs with college or university resources through local programs.
