Citizenship and Civic Engagement
Citizenship and Civic Engagement is one of 4-H's three main mission mandates.
"Since its inception, 4-H has placed emphasis on the importance of young people being engaged, well-informed
citizens. By connecting to their communities and community leaders, youth understand their role in civic affairs
and expand their role in decision making processes. It’s clear that civic engagement provides the foundation
that helps youth understand the 'big picture' of life and find purpose and meaning." --National 4-H

Lane County 4-H loves to give back and engage with the community. Hands for Larger Service is the 2019-2020 journal that provides youth ideas with ways they can expand their citizenship and give back to their community. Check it out today and share it with your friends!”
