The Illinois Leadership Council For Agriculture Education (ILCAE), is composed
of over 125 leaders from agricultural industries, community organizations, and
educational institutions. The council was formed in 1984 with an elected Board
of Directors who meet monthly throughout the year. They conduct an annual meeting
in December and are involved in legislative activities, testifying at public
meetings and developing information into specific recommendations for anyone
concerned with Agricultural Education throughout Illinois.
