Through this program, SAMHSA will build upon a collaboration with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

The USDA provides Cooperative Extension Services programs to improve the quality of people's lives by providing research-based knowledge to strengthen the social, economic and environmental well-being of families, communities and agriculture enterprises.
