Waldo County 4-H and Waldo County EMA have partnered to create a youth committee which will educate and empower others to handle emergency situations. Preparing youth will empower them to respond safely while making good decisions based on the knowledge and skills they have developed through this program.
In a time of chaos, we believe youth and adults are capable of taking action, keeping themselves safe as they respond appropriately as caring civic leaders.
If you are a teen, youth program leader, teacher, parent or caring adult who would like to see a positive change building our next generation of leaders, please join us at our Youth Preparedness Program Conversation.
