4-H YOUTH DEVELOPMENT

This past year has given our team the opportunity to reach out and RECONNECT with the youth of Sullivan County in many settings. Branching out from traditional 4-H Clubs, the team collaborated with towns, and school districts for in-school and after school programming. One other opportunity arose to reach youth in their summer program settings. On a weekly basis staff provided learning opportunities to diverse youth from ages 5-18. Youth learned the offerings of 4-H and the vast number of projects and community service they can partake in. Traveling into these settings has increased the number of youth reached immensely. The team covered areas from Roscoe/Livingston Manor, Wurtsboro, Liberty, Callicoon, Monticello, and more.
