Description

The Georgia 4-H Teen Leader Program is an opportunity for 4-H’ers to build leadership skills, understand citizenship, and serve their community. Leadership skills are an integral part of a well-rounded young adult. 4-H provides many opportunities throughout the year for youth to serve in leadership roles and help younger youth. Teen leaders are often part of county, district and state 4-H activities. Certified Teen Leaders are called upon to teach workshops at 4-H events such as Junior Conference, Fall Forum, and County Day Camps. They also assist county, district and state staff with leading and mentoring others at competitions like Project Achievement. Research has shown that youth serving in leadership roles gain experience in conflict management, decision making, team work, and gain confidence. The proper training for these youth is a vital component to their success as a leader.
