University of Maine Cooperative Extension plans to host a two-part online informational session for adults interested in becoming Maine 4-H volunteers.
The sessions are set for 6-7 p.m. on Wednesdays, May 22 and 29.
“Start Your 4-H Volunteer Journey” aims to provide participants with information about the UMaine Extension 4-H youth development program through four short e-Learning modules. Attendees will also participate in an experiential educational activity, learn about the key aspects of positive youth development and be introduced to the ages and stages of youth.
The two sessions will wrap up with an outline of next steps and an introduction to a county staff contact to help with the application process, if desired.
The informational sessions are free, but registration is required at extension.umaine.edu.
For more information or to request a reasonable accommodation, contact Jennifer Lobley at [email protected] or 207-255-3345.
