Leadership in Action

The Leadership in Action program is designed to recognize the work of Junior (7th - 8th grade) and Senior (9th - 12th grade) 4-H'ers as leaders in their communities. 4-H'ers will identify an issue or need in the community or an issue related to agriculture or the environment. Once this issue or need has been selected, the 4-H'er will determine ways to make a difference and then enact his/her plan. The process focuses on leadership engagement by the 4-H'er.
