About ISU Extension and Outreach: Clinton County

ISU Clinton County Extension  brings researched based cooperative programming to Clinton County.  

All Extension Council Meetings are held the Clinton County Extension Council Office, 400 East 11th Street, DeWitt, Iowa on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:00pm. 

Our annual Stakeholder Report outlines how we have served you this past year.

The Clinton County Extension Council, county staff and ISU Extension and Outreach staff work together to provide research-based learning opportunities for our citizens. Through this partnership, we carry Iowa State University’s land-grant mission across Clinton County.

Our 2011 Points of Pride tells how we act on that commitment.

Clinton County programs are fulfilling that commitment:

• Becoming a scientist or engineer is not easy, but Iowa teens are getting hands-on experience.
• In only seven weeks, a child can learn how to stay away from alcohol and drugs.
• Starting conversations that lead to farm business transitionsfrom one generation to the next is hard – we help get them started.
• Schools and restaurants are trained to safely prepare nutritious foods.
• Families are learninghow to prepare healthy, economical meals.
• Foods grown and marketed locally boost the local economy and fulfill consumer demands
• Our communities are more sustainable.
• Businesses get individualized supportthey need to grow.
• Farmers depend on us for the latest crop production research.

We can anticipate trends, build relationships, and catalyze opportunities because we are part of the ongoing life of our communities, committed to healthy people, healthy environments, and healthy economies.
