Georgia 4-H Code of Ethics
Honesty,
fairness, consistency, and sportsmanship are
learned, not inherited traits. The most
important role a 4-H leader (paid or volunteer) can
play in a 4-H member's development is acting as a
role model by exhibiting these
characteristics. We understand, as youth
educators, the only way a 4-H’er truly learns and
expands his or her horizon is by making his or her
own decisions. “Decisions” include preparing
his or her own portfolio, demonstration, speech, or
show animal.
A 4-H
Leader's responsibility is teaching the 4-H’er the
process by which he or she can make a decision, give
a presentation, or train an animal using the
resources available to him or her. Realizing
that one 4-H’er may not have the experience or
intellectual development that another may have,
indicates to the leader that this 4-H’er may require
more help on his or her project than others.
Doing the
work for a 4-H member totally circumvents the
learning progression which is inherent in the
framework of our organization. In congruence
with this philosophy, no substantially finished
demonstration, including speech and posters or any
other 4-H project will be provided to a 4-H’er to be
presented as his or her own work in
competition. If materials are shared with a
4-H’er, it is for reference and resource purposes
only.
The
process in 4-H work from Cloverleaf (Elementary) to
Senior (High School) levels was created to challenge
the young person's intellectual, creative, and
emotional capacities. The Georgia 4-H Mission
statement emphasizes that 4-H should encourage youth
to become self- directing, productive, and
contributing citizens. The role of the 4-H Leader is
to support, lead, encourage, develop and teach young
people. Our role is not to do the work for the
4-H’er.
