What people are saying about Building Partnerships for Youth

"When our state was first approached by the University of Arizona [National 4-H Council] to be engaged in the project on healthy youth development, it didn't take us very long to decide that we wanted to focus on non-school-hour programming, because it really fits in perfectly with a lot of different efforts and interests in this area. It also fits in perfectly with a couple of resources we have in our state."
