Page Community Development Assistance in Ashtabula County
Extension Educators are now specialized in one area to provide the most current research based information to our clientele. Due to budget constraints, Ashtabula County does not have a Community Development on-site. However, our county does offer targeted programming in this area through the use of OSU CD Extension Educators from the Western Reserve E.E.R.A. Sharon Strouse serves as the lead Educator for our E.E.R.A.
