Scaling PYD By harnessing the national and local power of the 4-H network, we are expanding the capacity of our 3,000+ educators and ~500,000 volunteers, scaling programming to accelerate our impact, and amplifying youth voice. Through this work, we are empowering our six million 4-H'ers to be ready for work and life. This is particularly important for youth in rural areas, as 4-H is the only youth development organization with reach in every county and parish in the country.

PYD Events Millions of young people lack access to opportunities that would develop the skills they need to succeed, including confidence, teamwork, creativity, and innovation. 4-H's national youth events engage teens and educators from around the country to find answers to problems and equip them to create change. This empowers them to become leaders; the next wave of innovators who influence others and live the ideals that foster a vibrant and creative economy. Our annual youth events, Ignite by 4-H and Citizenship Washington Focus, see high school students and Extension professionals convene in the Washington, D.C. area for immersive experiences that empower them to connect and find their spark. Ignite attendees explore the best 4-H has to offer in STEM, Agriscience, Healthy Living, Career Readiness, and Emotional Well-being through experiences that include career panels, career preparation, educational workshops, and the development of local engagement plans, while CWF attendees experience hands-on educational workshops, tour Washington, D.C.'s living classrooms, and meet with members of Congress to build the skills to be active citizens in their local communities.
