The Southern Extension and Research Activity-37 (better known as SERA-37) brings together over ninety land-grant university faculty: (1) to work collaboratively in understanding the challenges and opportunities associated with Latinos in the South; (2) to strengthen the research, Extension outreach, and public policy work being done with Latinos in our region’s land-grant university system; and (3) to advance educational programs and technical assistance to meet the diverse needs of our growing Latino population.
To this end SERA 37 has established two NEW taskforce groups:
1) Training Taskforce is working to spread the word about SERA-37, and share webinars on areas of special interest to members and their peers (Group Leader: Cesar Asuaje: crasuaje@ifas.ufl.edu)
2)The Immersion Program Taskforce is discussing potential in-country cultural immersion programs, and grant proposals (Group Leader: Julia Storm: julia_storm@ncsu.edu)
