Kevin H. Crenshaw, a legal family educator for the Alabama Cooperative Extension System, received the 1890 Regional Award for Excellence in Extension at the 125th annual meeting of the Association of Public and Land Grant Universities in Denver, Colorado. The Alabama Cooperative Extension System is a joint effort of Auburn University and historically Black Alabama A&M University.
Crenshaw was honored for founding the Successful Aging Initiative, a program offering finance, health, and legal education for older Alabamans. The program averages 9,000 face-to-face contacts each year and more than 215,000 other contacts.
