Distinguished Service / Achievement Awards
MAEP is the Missouri affiliate of the National Association of County Agricultural Agents (NACAA) that represents extension professionals across the country. Each year NACAA sponsors an Annual Meeting and Professional Improvement Meeting and presents national awards for programming excellence among its members.
