4-H Enters New Day In New Ways

By KEITH CARRINGTON Area Extension Agent, Youth Surveys have shown that young people are more generously committed to helping their fellow man, than any other generation in history. In large numbers, young people are helping to clean up the environment, improving health care and safety habits, working with underprivileged families and creating new methods and techniques for solving problems. Young people want to be involved in making decisions that affect their lives. They want to be able to play an important role in making this country a better place in which to live. 4-H gives young people that opportunity, to help solve the problems of today, to make the best better. i Hie future includes a committment to human betterment, expansion of 4-H into urban areas, more work with underprivileged families and continued growth for America’s largest youth organization. The theme of National 4-H Week, “A New Day, A New Way”, encourages 4-H’ers, their leaders and friends of 4-H, to strive even harder to make the 4H program relate to the needs of young people today. Interest in 4-H has broadened in recent years. Os the five million 4-H’ers, 33 per cent are "from rural areas, 43 per cent come from small towns and the remaining 24 per cent are from metropolitan areas. \ Urban 4-H programs have grown tremendously in the last five years. Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Indianapolis and Washington, D. C.Nall have urban 4-H programs. 4-H is in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam similar programs exist in 85 Countries around the world. Each of the 96,000 4-H clubs in the United States relate their activities to helping themselves and their communities meet the problems of the 70’s. Clubs have inaugurated roadside clean-ups, cleaned streams and rivers, collected trash and recycled materials to improve the environment. Clubs have conducted tractor safety checks, health testing, drug abuse programs, rural development planning; demonstrated proper first aid techniques and correct bicycle and small engine vehicle operation; and interpreted proper nutritional habits. There are 4-H programs for handicapped and mentally retarded youths, as well as programs using television that reach thousands of youths, not normally reached by the 4-H program. Efforts of 4-H’ers all over the country have been highly applauded by governors, mayors, city councils, chambers of commerce, police and fire departments and community residents. Guiding and encouraging 4H’ers to “make the best better” are a half million volunteer leaders, who give of their time, to

help young people make their own decisions. Men and women of the extension service, at all levels: county, state and federal, help supervise 4-H by developing programs to meet the needs of young people. Individuals, corporations, civic organizations and foundations do their share to help 4-H, through their support of local, state, national and international 4-H programs. Their financial and technical support and their incentives and scholarships to 4H’ers, have helped to make 4-H grow even greater heights. Behind them all are 30 million 4-H alumni, whose experience and expertise gives young people a model after which to pattern their 4-H work. We encourage 4-H to continue to expand into urban areas and continue to serve the needs of all American youth and look forward to America’s largest youth organization growing larger in foe years to come.
