Citizenship In Action

What: Would you like to have more influence in laws and rules that affect your life? Then you’ll want to go to Kansas 4-H Citizenship in Action! This two day event is sponsored by the State 4-H Youth Leadership Council. The purpose of the event is for Kansas youth to learn how the state legislative process works and how their voice and participation in decision-making can make a difference in their local communities. The legislative visit will not only familiarize youth with the capitol building, but will also show them how they can affect the legislative process.

When: February 20-21, 2022

Where: Topeka KS

Who: Youth 13-18 years old by January 1 of the current year

Registration: Click Here to Register

Registration Fee: $200.00

Kansas has been approved to send a delegation to Citizenship Washington Focus in Washington, D.C. during the first full week of June (the deadline to register is Jan. 15). 

Youth and volunteers interested in this or other events are encouraged to visit the Kansas 4-H website, or visit their local extension office for information.
