Special Initiatives
The Office of Partnerships and Public Engagement supports a wide variety of Presidential, Congressional, and Secretarial initiatives including:
Women in Agriculture
From the classroom to the farm to the boardroom, women in agriculture are helping to pave the way for a better future. As leaders, it is our responsibility to make sure the next generation of women are educated, encouraged and empowered to take on the challenges of meeting the world's growing food, fuel and fiber needs.

This initiative was created to improve the quality of life for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander individuals and communities across the nation through increased access to and participation in federal programs.

USDA works closely with other federal departments to identify and address the needs of farmworker communities.
