SUMMARY:Leadership Washington Focus
DESCRIPTION:Leadership Washington Focus is a leadership program conducted by National 4‑H Council for middle school age youth. The program is a 4-day event held in mid July. It is held at the National 4‑H Youth Conference Center in Chevy Chase\, Maryland just outside Washington\, D.C. The program utilizes Washington\, D.C. as a working classroom to learn about leadership and provides hands-on opportunities for our younger teens to promote “Learn to Lead Now – Better Leaders Tomorrow.” \nThe program will provide an opportunity for youth to listen to motivational speakers and participate in workshops that will develop communication skills\, increase leadership capacity and build lifetime skills. \nActivities during the 4-day conference will help delegates to: \n\nBuild confidence in their ability to motivate and direct others in meaningful action.\nPractice effective communication with others through group discussion and public speaking.\nWork with others to create and accomplish goals.\nDevelop an understanding of leadership styles and identify a personal style.\nExchange ideas\, practice respect and form friendships with other 4‑H’ers from across the nation.\nVisit some of D.C.’s most spectacular sights and learn about the different types of leadership conveyed through the symbolism of our national monuments and memorials.\n\nNew Jersey 4‑H sends 8-15 4‑H members and 2-3 adult advisors to Leadership Washington Focus each year. There are approximately 150 4‑H members from across the United States attending the conference. The cost for the week is approximately $800\, which includes registration\, lodging\, transportation\, all activities and most meals. There are local scholarships available to participants through their county 4‑H program. Participants may only attend this event one time during their 4‑H career. All interested 4‑H members must be in the 6-8 grade at the time of application and must go through a local selection process. For further information about attending as a New Jersey delegate contact your county 4‑H office. Applications are due on November 1 for the conference in July.
