Mental Health Month: 4-H is helping empower their members with their Beyond Ready campaign

May is Mental Health Awareness Month!

Data from the National 4-H Council shows just how important their programs are in improving the health of today’s youth.

Their research shows that 53% of Gen Z reports feelings of loneliness. However, 77% of today’s teens say that out of school programs give them confidence.

That is whre 4-H programs step in.

The organization has launched a new initiative called Beyond Ready, with the goal of empowering ten million young people with the skills, resilence, and confidence they need to thrive.
