This Senate resolution expresses support for designating October 4 through October 10, 2026, as "National 4-H Week," honoring the nation's largest youth development organization, which reaches nearly 6 million young people across the country. The resolution recognizes 4-H's role as the youth development program of the Cooperative Extension System, a network of more than 110 land-grant colleges and universities, working in partnership with the Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture. It highlights the contributions of 4-H's nearly 500,000 volunteers and 3,500 professional staff who mentor young people in areas such as health, science, agriculture, and civic engagement. The resolution encourages Americans to recognize 4-H's impact and celebrates its mission of preparing youth to become confident, capable leaders ready for work and life. As a symbolic resolution, it does not involve any funding or binding legal requirements but serves to formally acknowledge and promote the observance.
