NUEL has created Regional Networks to bring Extension professionals working in urban settings together regionally and nationally to share, collaborate and participate in urban focused professional development. There are five NUEL regional networks:

• 1890 
• Northeast
• North Central
• South
• West

Each regional network meets on a regular basis, often online, and most organize in-person conferences or meetings focused on professional development and networking bi-annually. The current chairs of the Regional Networks are indicated in the list of NUEL Steering Committee members (link it back to the steering committee list).
