Children, Youth, and Families at Risk Program: Children, Youth, and Families Education and Research Network (CYFERnet)

CYFERnet is a network whose purpose is to provide seamless access to program, evaluation, and technology resources and technical assistance for CYFAR funded community-based programs for at risk children and families based on self-determined needs. CYFERnet is distributed throughout the Cooperative Extension System. Partnering universities pool resources into a "national network of expertise" working collaboratively to assist communities in developing and sustaining holistic programs for children, youth, and families at risk. CYFERnet staff has nationwide responsibility and all programs and products are available to all States. This collaboration is being institutionalized within CES to ensure that support to educational programs for all who live in high-risk environments will continue over the long term.
