Cross-Cultural Studies: Mexico 2008

The 2008 Cross-Cultural Studies in Mexico will give county agents, state specialists, program development coordinators, and district extension directors a broad set of cultural experiences so that they can better understand, communicate with, and ultimately work more effectively with Latinos in Georgia.
