4-H Essential Elements Program Planning Tool Launched
Want to know how to intentionally implement a youth development approach and better meet the needs of young people in a positive way?
The 4-H Essential Elements Program Planning Tool will help you discover how your 4-H programs measure up next to the essential elements. By taking the 4-H Essential Element survey, you will verify the strong points and identify areas where you can increase your emphasis for each of the essential elements of belonging, mastery, independence and generosity.
Need resources that will help your 4-H partners understand and apply the 4-H essential elements? The 4-H Essential Element Program Planning Tool offers some of the best resources from current youth development research and CYFERnet that relate to the 4-H Essential Elements. These can be used for staff support, volunteer training, new staff orientation and mentoring boards and committees. Volunteers will find the 4-H Essential Element Program Planning Tool easy to use and full of good ideas to make them more effective as leaders.
The 4-H Essential Elements Program Assessment Tool is a project of the John and Doris Norton School of Family and Consumer Sciences in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at the University of Arizona and National 4-H Headquarters. We gratefully acknowledge the hosting of this Web site by the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Funding for this project was generously provided by National 4-H Council.
