| Impact Report | After a long hiatus, the Bernalillo County 4-H Leaders Association was restored in 2010. The goal of the association is to provide assistance and leadership to new leaders and assisting in promoting the 4-H program. The group was instrumental in the success of the “Lights on After School” event hosted by Bernalillo County 4-H, recruited new members at the State Home School Convention and South Valley Field Day, hosted a Leaders Pot-Luck. The Association is still in its inception. There are many challenges that need to be addressed with the most evident obstacle being Association member roles. 95% of the attendees reported increased knowledge concerning 4-H Programming. Twenty-two volunteer leaders attended Western Region 4-H Leaders Forum. Leaders gained knowledge and skills related to county and national activities, parliamentary procedure, livestock project nomination procedures, contests, record keeping, and school enrichment, youth activities and communication. Evaluations reveal a mean score of 4.45 on a scale of 1 to 5 (with a score of 1 being poor and a score of 5 being excellent). Thirteen Master Gardener 4-H SEEDS volunteers were trained and utilized in conducting special interest programs to reach 1135 youth during the SEEDS Program. Training was provided on the SEEDS curricula, classroom logistics and protocol, introducing the 4-H program to youth and interesting topics to include in their presentation. 12 new adult volunteer leaders completed the screening process and enrolled as leaders in Bernalillo County. 223 adult volunteer leaders reenrolled for a total enrollment of 235 leaders in the county. |
