The Nebraska 4-H Volunteer Orientation serves as an introduction to the 4-H Youth Development program in Nebraska. As part of the screening process, the orientation covers a variety of foundational and essential topics. Any interested individuals including current or prospective volunteers, are welcome to complete the orientation. However, all new volunteers serving in direct roles, such as club leader, project leader, or workshop presenter, are required to complete the orientation. Volunteers are also required to complete the orientation as part of the re-screening process. Here is the link: Volunteer Orientation | Nebraska 4-H (unl.edu) Please email Tammy @tcavanaugh2@unl.edu with questions.

Let us know if your Cass County 4-Her's is doing great things! Just email Tammy @tcavanaugh2@unl.edu the details and of course pictures! We will put "shout outs" in the NewsBlast and possibly on our social media.
