For more than 50 years, Citizenship Washington Focus has brought 4-H members from across the nation to Washington D.C. During the conference, youth participate in civic workshops, committees and field trips. “Citizenship Washington Focus not only strengthens young people’s understanding of the government’s civic process, but it also boosts their leadership skills, communication skills and overall confidence,” said Amanda Stade, SDSU Extension State 4-H Events Management Coordinator. Youth who attended the 2018 conference were selected through an application process. During the week-long conference, teens get a behind-the-scenes look at the nation’s capital while meeting with how you can become involved in members of Congress to learn more about Fischer, Hamlin County; Jacob Prouty, Citizenship Washington Focus 2019, Hamlin County; Mickeala Boyd, Hamlin how their government works.
