4-H FCS 101

The Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program places great value on the 4-H Family and Consumer Sciences projects. These projects expose 4-H members to the academic disciplines of family and consumer science and help them gain valuable skills and knowledge that can be applied to daily life. These projects also teach leadership skills.

Under the 4-H FCS 101 Initiative, resources and training have been developed to support new county Extension agents (Family and Consumer Science and 4-H and Youth Development). The purpose of this resource guide is to help agents understand the 4-H Family and Consumer Science projects and how to manage them. 

OK, that was the official mantra regarding 4-H FCS 101 here is what you need to know.  The information designed to help new FCS agents is also "good stuff" for the seasoned employee.  At the 4-H FCS 101 website you will find quick giudes with the essentials to managing each of the FCS projects and guides to conducting things like the county food show or fashion show.

For some of you this may be "old hat" but I'll bet at the very least you'll find something that makes your 4-H FCS programing a little easier.

Happy cooking,
