Plan of Work: Developing Responsible Youth and Families--2020
Outcome: Initial Outcome
The generation of of today's high school Junior and Seniors learning good life skills and responsible adulting is tough. These youth have so manta more opportunities and also challenges then in the past. But nevertheless this group of teenagers are on their way to preparing for the future either going into the workforce or college. Being approached by the school and community partners to help these tenageers make more adult like decisions has been brought to my attention. The goal is too help youth choose a path that will set them up for success in their adult life. SO here is what 4-H, LCC, and community partners (Promise Zone Coordinators, Family Resources Centers) have came up with. Starting in April we will work with Letcher County Central High School in the JAG Classes and Financial Literacy Classes these are Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors.
After meeting with the school and community partners the high students seem to be very eager for Adulting 101. Result to come!
