Who We Are
The Parks and Recreation Division's Extension Education Section was established to provide research-based information to Broward County residents and businesses for improved quality of life and business profitability.
Extension Education is a collaborative effort between Broward County Government and the University of Florida. Program areas continually evolve to dynamically meet the needs of the residents. Information and educational programming cover a wide variety of areas.
