Parents and Guardians: if you have a youth between 13-18, they are invited to take part in the National 4-H Annual Index survey. Their voice can help shape the future of 4-H! The survey will take about 15-24 minutes to complete and will ask about their 4-H experience in 2025.

The deadline to complete the survey is July 15th.
