Welcome to the National Association of Community Development Extension Professionals (NACDEP) website

NACDEP is an organization dedicated to improving the visibility, coordination, professional status and resource base of community and economic development Extension programs and professionals.

We encourage you to share this site with your colleagues, become involved in one of our many activities, and give us your thoughts about how NACDEP can be useful to you and your colleagues. NACDEP makes no effort to proscribe what state or regional community resource and economic development programming and research look like, but rather is designed to assist those of us who deliver programming and do research under this broad umbrella to acquire and maintain the financial, political, technical and organizational resources we need to meet our objectives.

2012 NACDEP Conference



 


Marriott Hotel
Park City, Utah


May 20-23, 2012
 THEME: “Capitalizing on Our Assets”


Current global economic challenges have forced public and private sectors to innovate and adapt to an ever-changing environment. This process has been marked by national, state and local level debates on how we utilize our finite resources and plan for the future. The 2012 conference will highlight the role of Extension Community Development professionals in helping address community and economic development issues with a focus on assets within the community capitals framework. Ultimately, the conference provides a forum for Extension educators, scholars, researchers, partners and government officials to explore the breadth of topics related to community development.
