When Everyone Leads is a leadership experience for high school 4-H youth that flips the script. Leadership isn’t a title—it’s about getting people together to make progress.💯
This isn’t your typical training. It’s interactive, hands-on, and designed to challenge you in a good way.
You’ll learn how to:
❓Ask better questions (instead of just having answers)
🔍See challenges from different perspectives
👫Work with others to make real impact
Reach out to your county Extension office to learn more or sign up.
