Crawford County Youth in Governance Programs

• At the April county board meeting, a resolution was passed allowing 4-H Youth Development to actively seek the participation of youth in the governance of Crawford County. Six youth from the Prairiedu Chien School District have attended two county board meetings. Youth also attended the Land Conservation and Public Health committee meetings. In 2009, one school district with seven youth participated in youth in governance. At the end of the school year, the youth that observed the meetings will be asked for input on how to best incorporate youth into the county government
