Nebraska 4-H is building a ready generation in a world of change. Today’s youth are growing up in a unique moment in time where the world is rapidly changing—life following a pandemic, and the presence of artificial intelligence are just a few of the factors effecting mental health, confidence, and the ability to find contentment in life.
Since its beginning more than 120 years ago, 4-H has become the nation’s largest youth development organization. Nationally, 4-H serves over six million youth, ages five to nineteen, in rural, urban, and suburban communities in every state across the nation. In Nebraska, 4-H reaches one out of three who are age-eligible. Young people need positive youth development experiences more now than ever.
