Extension Advisory Committee

The Extension Advisory Committee (EAC) is required for recipients of Federal financial assistance and plays
an integral role in UME program planning. Our Montgomery EAC is comprised of a wide range of
professionals, community leaders, and other key stakeholders with a vested interest in UME, who are dedicated
to advising program development, assisting with outreach efforts, fundamental advocacy and identifying
community needs. Their input aids UME faculty and staff with overall advisory services to support program
determination; such members have a personal interest in community development and reflect the needs of
audiences that can be addressed by UME. Our EAC members represent various partnerships and institutions,
bringing their expertise, resources, and perspectives to support UME's mission. Their contributions ensure that
programs and strategies are reflective of the community, relevant to community needs, and impactful. EAC
members are selected in accordance with our university’s nondiscrimination policy without regard to race, color,
sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, marital status, age, national origin, political affiliation,
physical or mental disability, religion, protected veteran status, genetic information, personal appearance, or
any other legally protected class.
