You are invited to Hellos and Handshakes with Jason Henderson
On April 3 Jason Henderson will join Iowa State University as our new vice president for extension and outreach. From April 10 to May 19, he will travel across the state to share “Hellos and Handshakes” and you are invited to attend one of the sessions.
At each session Jason will introduce himself and then host a facilitated discussion. He wants to hear and learn from extension professionals and council members. He also wants to collect information for our new strategic plan.
