Youth have the creativity, connectivity and availability to make a difference now.
Our communities, our nation and the world, needs leaders.
Leaders for tomorrow, and yes, leaders for today.
4-H Leadership has pathway opportunities to grow and develop just like any other project area. Each experience provides new challenges and possibilities for growth. State level positions are there to build state programs and teach advance skills for the youth to take back and use in their local communities. Movement along the pathway indicates an increased challenge level and effort/time required to serve.

Leadership Gives Youth a Voice
Youth voice includes the ideas, opinions, perspectives, initiatives and actions of young people. In an adult-driven society, actions must be taken to incorporate more youth perspectives into our communities.
