Cooperative Specialist Advisory Committee

The Cooperative Specialist Advisory Committee (SAC) serves as a liaison between Cooperative Extension (CE) specialists and leadership of the UC Davis College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (CA&ES) and UC Agriculture and Natural Resources (ANR). The SAC represents the interests and concerns of CE specialists to better serve California’s diverse communities and to enhance interactions between CA&ES and ANR.

This committee meets monthly with CA&ES deans and quarterly with ANR leadership.
