摘要:A variety of efforts are under way to help build the capacity of Cooperative Extension to effectively serve culturally diverse communities. In Pennsylvania, one such effort was the development of Diverse Issues, a quarterly newsletter. The purpose of this study was to determine the usefulness of the newsletter as a diversity educational resource. The subjects were 200 extension professionals on the newsletter mailing list. Participants completed a 15-item questionnaire. Based on the findings of the study, extension professionals consider Diverse Issues a major diversity educational resource. They also agree that the content, topics, frequency of publication, and format are appropriate.
