UF/IFAS Governmental Affairs

The UF/IFAS Office of Governmental Affairs secures funding and affects legislation allowing UF/IFAS to serve the people of Florida through education, research and Extension.

Our office works closely with local, state and federal governments to educate policy-makers and staff on issues that are vital to the mission of IFAS. We help communicate key political issues to internal and external stakeholders. We also work closely with the University of Florida Office of Government and Community Relations to help serve the University’s mission and community.

UF/IFAS Government Affairs Team details happenings and the political layout in Tallahassee, FL during session in FYIFAS each week. Follow us on Facebook to keep up with the latest from Tallahassee.
