Spring 1990 Volume 28 Number 1 Issues-Oriented Public Policy Education Alan J. Hahn Associate Professor Department of Human Service Studies New York College of Human Ecology Cornell University, Ithaca, New York Effective public policy education spurs the new issues-oriented approach to Extension education as shown in the Cooperative Extension System's National Initiatives. By public policy education, I mean educational programs where people learn about public issues, policy-making processes, and opportunities for involvement and influence.1 Such education has two principal objectives - one at the individual level, the other at the community level. The first is to provide people with knowledge and skills necessary for effective participation in public affairs; the second is to contribute to the effective and equitable resolution of pressing public issues and concerns. To implement successful issues-oriented public policy education, agents and specialists need to do three things: Address audiences at three levels. Help people and communities move through the policy-making process.

October 1995 Volume 33 Number 5 Contents Submission Instructions Instructions for Submitting Articles Review and Evaluation Process Review and Evaluation Process Editorial Committees and Board Editorial Committee and Board Commentary Swatting FliesEating Elephants Russell, Bill "Swatting FliesEating Elephants" challenges the Extension system to become a premier adult education agency by focusing talented teachers on real world clientele. The thesis is that Extension has compromised itself by clinging to a dwindling clientele-base with an unfocused curriculum and a strategy of political reliance. What Business Are We In? Johnson, Earl C. There is a parallel between U.S. industrial firms that have been successful for 100 or more years and what Cooperative Extension must do to remain viable in the years ahead. A recent article in The Wall Street Journal provides valuable food for thought on how we can most-effectively market our organization. As we ask ourselves "What Business Are We In?", it is imperative that we focus on Extension's strength. We know and serve the adults and youth of rural America, providing them education in agriculture and home economics.

Statistics compiled from numerous studies by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the National Institute for Sports Science and Safety, were among the several studies considered by The American Legion in reaching their conclusion. The subject was brought to the national level by Legionnaires in Florida and Montana, where in 2003 an American Legion baseball pitcher died as a result of a head injury from a baseball hit with a metal bat. In a twenty-year study by the National Center for Catastrophic Sports Injury Research (1982-2002), 7 deaths of high school aged baseball players were recorded. In that same period, there were 6 deaths in soccer, 20 deaths in track, and 92 deaths associated with football.

Search About Pulling Together Featured Products Other Rural Resources Quarterly Issue: Fall 2001 Safe School Resources for Rural Schools Violence among youth, especially in schools, is one of American society's most pressing concerns. It also is a source of controversy. Too often, the problems of violence and substance abuse are perceived to exist only in urban areas; in contrast, rural communities are imagined as small, slow-paced towns free of violent crime and protected from gangs and drugs. Although the rates of violent crime and drug use tend to be lower in rural areas than in cities, the gap is closing. Differences in drug-usage rates between rural and urban areas have declined. For some substances, the rural population actually has greater levels of use. The variety of problems faced by rural communities and schools requires a variety of solutions. Rural communities vary considerably, which complicates the understanding of rural substance-use problems and increases the need for prevention, intervention, and treatment programs tailored to the unique needs of each rural community. The diversity of rural communities also requires a community-development approach to prevention and intervention rather than an individual or psychological part. The special characteristics of rural communities indicate that a communitywide approach is ideally suited to the strengths of small communities. Although community change is a root cause of the problems facing rural communities, it also is the most effective approach to solving these problems.

Behaviors that may indicate a Dual Sensory Impairment Behaviors that may indicate a Visual Impairment Behaviors that may indicate a Hearing Impairment ... Grant Performance Report What is Deaf-Blindness? Deaf-blindness is a loss in both the vision and hearing senses . This condition affects over 8,000 children between birth and 21 years of age in the United States. Deaf-blindness has over 70 known causes; however, regardless of the cause, the challenges of Deaf-blindness are lifelong. Appropriate education must address both the hearing and vision impairments, as well as any other disabilities that may be present. The impact of hearing and visual loss varies greatly across individuals. The sensory losses occur in varying degrees with each person and a child need not exhibit all of the symptomatic behaviors identified in this brochure to be considered Deaf-Blind. For example, a child may show only one of the behaviors that indicates a hearing impairment, but show several of the behaviors that indicate a vision impairment. The combined effects of both of these sensory losses, even if both are mild, may qualify him or her for Deaf-Blind services.
