ANREP Positions Available to Members
As a member you have many opportunities to assume leadership roles in ANREP and at the same time interact with your Extension peers from across the country. Below are all of the current positions you may want to consider. Please contact anyone on this list and we will be glad to get you involved. We are all identified in the ANREP Directory. If you are not familiar with JCEP, it stands for the Joint Council of Extension Professionals and currently is made up of five different Extension Associations - ANREP, NACAA, NEA4-HA, NAEFCS, and ESP. There you can learn more about what PILD and the other initials mean. NASULGC is the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges and ECOP is NASULGC's Extension Committee on Organization and Policy. Their representatives attend the JCEP Exec Committee meetings. GALAXY (Indianapolis - 2008) is the every-5th-year mega conference of all JCEP members.
