Program delivery emerges from nine focus areas. These focus areas tailor the national themes to the strengths of the regional Land Grant Universities' research, education and Extension programs and capture the enthusiasm of our partners and stakeholders. Stakeholder involvement is central to each focus area. The focus areas are:
