Mission Statement

The mission of 4-H Youth Development is to empower youth to reach their full potential, working and learning in partnership with caring adults.

Social Media Guidelines

Yakima County 4-H social media networks are managed and monitored by WSU Yakima County 4-H Youth Development staff, faculty, and volunteers/interns who support community outreach and communication.

The purpose of the Yakima County 4-H Youth Development social media networks is to build a community of 4-H supporters and stakeholders (e.g., volunteers, families, youth, community members, partner organizations) to engage in positive and productive conversation and communication. Our social media networks are monitored daily to make sure postings and discussions are appropriate and consistent with 4-H program values. Social media administrators, typically 4-H staff or faculty, will respond from time to time, as necessary, or will direct a participant’s questions or concerns to the appropriate party.
