Major Program: Leadership

Plan of Work: Leadership Skills for Youth and Adults

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

Youth that is engaged in extracurricular activities more likely to become productive citizens in their community. After nearly 2 years of not being able to meet in person youth and parents have been eager to begin programming again. Youth in grades 9-12 are invited to participate and we have over twenty five teens enrolled in this group. During the year the teens had the opportunity to volunteer with 4-H programs designed for younger members, participate in the communications contest, and conduct meetings with parliamentary procedure to decide on activities the group would participate in. Our teens have also been engaged in the community with service learning projects. Four of the members serve on the district four teen council. Our teen group also planned a county leadership boot camp day in which they focused on communications and leadership skills.
