Positive Youth Development
4-H is designed to support the positive and successful development of all youth. 4-H volunteer leaders are essential partners in creating a positive environment by focusing on the strengths of youth and providing positive ways for youth to meet their basic needs. http://4h.ucanr.edu/About/Mission/

Youth-Adult Partnerships
Youth-adult partnerships are shown to be one of the most effective ways to engage both youth and adults in meaningful activities which contribute to positive youth development. http://4h.ucanr.edu/About/Framework/YAP/
