Georgia 4-H Ambassador Program 



Current 4-H Ambassadors (click here)

The Georgia 4-H Ambassador program is for high school 4-H'ers and adults interested in being part of  a team trained in specific issues. 4-H Ambassadors select from the issues offered, participate in a dynamic, intense training weekend, plan individual activities to share their knowledge and represent Georgia 4-H as ambassadors in the field.  The inaugural program in 2005 boasted more than 30 youth working in their communities to make the best better.

4-H Ambassadors are making a one year commitment to the program which includes the training weekend (August 17-18), individualized course of study, monthly reports and self directed learning, individualized plans for sharing their knowledge. 

4-H'ers may serve as ambassadors in one area per year and may be eligible to return as an ambassador in the same issue or in a new issue in following years.  2005 Ambassadors in good standing may complete a renewal application to return in the same area.  Returning Ambassadors will not participate in the training weekend unless they are transfering to another knowledge track.

This year's Ambassador tracks are: Health Rocks, Global Programs, Operational Military Kids, and 4-H Public Relations.

NEW THIS YEAR: Health Rocks Ambassadors must apply in teams of two youth and one adult. Ideally, these team members are from the same county. Applications should be submitted together.
