Our 4-H Volunteer Connections are structured to offer connection, engagement, and networking for our 4-H volunteers in the Northeast Region. We bring volunteers together from CT, DE, MA, ME, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT, and WV! These Zoom sessions start with “connection before content” with fun icebreaker games and conversation. We then move to the evening topic, sometimes led by experts from different states or volunteers as teams or panelists. Volunteers get the chance to spend time in breakout rooms with individuals from other parts of the region to share ideas and learn from one another. We would love for your to join us!
Preparing for Youth Engagement
4-H is hands-on learning! Have you ever spent hours preparing hands-on learning experience for youth to then have them fall flat? You might be missing one key ingredient- youth engagement. Join us as we explore the key elements of youth engagement and practical strategies to move from working for youth to working with them!
