Using Multiple Youth Programming Delivery Modes to Drive the Development of Social Capital in 4-H Participants
Kinsey, Sharon
New Directions for Youth Development, n138 p61-73 Sum 2013
This article focuses on how 4-H youth participants are building social capital, or connections among individuals and community members, through their 4-H experiences. These experiences can be seen through the lens of such 4-H delivery modes as the traditional 4-H club, after-school programs, and school enrichment programs. In addition, other experiences such as leadership camps and conferences or activities in the local community afford youth the opportunity to build the relationships, trust, and respect reflective of social capital. Examples are derived from 4-H program participants--urban, suburban and rural youth--in Camden County, New Jersey.
