Maine 4-H State Youth Council

The Maine 4-H Youth Council is a chance to step up, speak out, and represent 4-H across Maine. As part of this leadership group, 4-H members and young alumni connect local and state programs, amplify youth voice in 4-H, and promote 4-H events from Maine to the national stage.

Nominees must be between the ages of 16-24 years of age and must have participated in Maine 4-H for at least 2 years (club, independent, after school, school-based, mentoring, or camp program). Nominations are accepted from 4-H staff and directly from members.
