4-H Civic Engagement Needs Assessment Survey

Help us learn what civic engagement needs you have!

 

The CA 4-H Civic Engagement Advisory Committee wants to learn more about what resources, support, and events 4-H youth and adult volunteers want regarding civic engagement. Civic engagement is about being involved in your community, such as community service, learning about government, voting, service learning, and more. We want to know how 4-H can better support youth in being civically engaged.

 

Your responses to this survey will help improve the 4-H experience for future program years.

 

We want to hear from youth members! Adult Volunteers, parents, and 4-H Staff are welcome to complete the survey, but please share this survey with your youth (especially teens) so we can get their perspective as well. We recommend youth ages 11 and up fill out the survey.
