Wisconsin 4-H Adult Leader Council
The Wisconsin 4-H Adult Leader Council (ALC) includes an adult representative
from each county. The purpose of the council is to enhance UW-Extension
4-H Youth Development programs at the state, county and local level.
The Council provides a statewide forum for 4-H Youth Development
adult leaders that offers:
- Issue awareness and discussion;
- Education on new opportunities;
- Topic/interest sharing between counties;
- Opportunities for volunteers to be involved in planning and evaluating
specific statewide programs; serve on state committees; and as
chaperones for state and national programs.
The Fall Forum is the annual meeting of the Wisconsin 4-H Adult
Leader Council. This meeting is held in partnership with the Wisconsin
4-H Youth Leader Council. The meeting includes an informational,
educational, business, and networking agenda items. Each county sends
an adult volunteer leader delegate. In addition a youth representative
from each county is invited. As part of the business meeting, the
ALC elects the Executive Board.
The Executive Board is elected at Fall Forum and is representative of the 4-H leaders by geographic districts. They meet three times annually. This includes a
winter, summer and fall meetings.
