National 4-H Council has a recent donor who has agreed to sponsor the 4-H PYD Spotlight Day, so now the morning and afternoon sessions are at no cost to the participants.
Morning Plenary Session
Fully Prepared does not Mean Problem Free – But it does Mean being Resilient
We welcome Karen Pittman, Founder Partner of Knowledge to Power Catalysts, and Founder and former CEO of the Forum for Youth Development, to 4-H this morning! Ms. Pittman arguably started the youth development movement in the early 1990s with her famous statement “problem free is not fully prepared.” Ms. Pittman is a fan of 4-H work, and today she will share an updated vision of PYD for a new generation of youth. We will also hear from our five national 4-H partners on their efforts to center PYD in 4-H nationally and learn more about the work of the 4-H Standing Committee on Positive Youth Development. You will leave the session informed and motivated to make your PYD work the best it can be for a generation of youth that need 4-H now more than ever! Register Here
