Staff Resources 

This page is designed to be used by County Extension Agents only. It is a repository of resources that specifically concern staff members.

• 4-H 101... The Basics of Starting 4-H Clubs - The newly revised 4-H 101 is designed to be a general overview and resource guide for youth development staff or volunteers who are starting new 4-H clubs or working with existing clubs.  4-H 101 merges the basic concepts and principles of effective youth development delivered in a non-formal (out of school) setting with the "nuts and bolt" information needed to manage a 4-H program.
  
  
• 4-H Handbook and Policy Guidelines -this PDF version of the handbook as a navigatable table of contents to help users quickly find information.  It also has bookmarked pages that can be accessed by opening the bookmarks tab of Adobe PDF Reader.  We hope this will be a helpful resource to you.
