People are committed to those things they are involved with and those things they help create. Make a list of every available resource in your community. Include the service clubs, special interest groups, county officials and county services, individuals, as well as local and state officials residing in your community. Contact a key person in this organization or group or contact the individual resource person. You may not get them all involved, but this should not keep you from trying.
Personal contacts are best.
Make a file of the resources you can use with the 4-H program. Share this file with your 4-H members. Program planning and community resources go hand in hand. All of this does not happen overnight. It must be carefully pursued by the 4-H leader.
