Fellows Program
I extend my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional contributions to the Purdue Extension Fellows program over the past couple of years. Their passion, expertise, and strong work ethic have played a pivotal role in the program's success.

2023 Impact Report
The much-anticipated Purdue Extension Impact Report is now available for review. This comprehensive report showcases the dedication and hard work that you have exemplified across the state of Indiana.
The Impact Report is a testament to the positive change we bring to the areas we serve. It is a reflection of our collective efforts and commitment to making a difference in the lives of those we engage with.
To maximize the reach and visibility of our achievements, I encourage each county to take advantage of the social media toolkit provided. The toolkit contains resources to help you effectively share our success stories on various social media platforms. Please review the toolkit and schedule postings accordingly to ensure our great work reaches a wider audience.
Additionally, I would like to announce that hard copies of the Impact Report will be mailed out to each county. This provides an excellent opportunity for local offices to have a tangible resource to share with stakeholders and partners.
Thank you all for your hard work and dedication to the mission of Purdue Extension.
