The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Office of Partnerships and Public Engagement (OPPE) is hosting a half-day Symposium on Federal Programs and Resources for Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) with an emphasis on cooperative agreements.
The HSI community and partnering stakeholders are invited to hear from Departmental leaders, program officers, and project coordinators about a variety of federal funding resources offered at USDA aimed at helping HSIs expand cooperative partnerships and collaborations with USDA. This includes learning about how USDA supports students, staff, and faculty through cooperative agreements at various agencies within the Department.
