Extension Disaster Education
Network
The Extension Disaster Education Network
(EDEN) is a collaborative multistate effort
by extension services across the country
to improve the delivery of services to citizens
affected by disasters. CSREES leads this
effort.
The mission of EDEN is to provide encouragement
and support to local extension workers across
the U.S. as they:
- Build working relationships with their
local and state emergency management networks.
- Provide educational programs on disaster
preparation and mitigation.
- Assume locally appropriate roles during
disasters.
- Collaborate in recovery efforts.
EDEN links extension educators from across
the U.S. and various disciplines, enabling
them to use and share educational resources.
Many of these educational resources are available
at EDEN's
Web site.
