The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) awarded a $356,250 Project Grant under the Cooperative Extension Service (CFDA 10.500) to Kansas State University. The funding will support the "Department of the Air Force 4-H Military Outreach and Support Project (4-HMP)" to provide consistent, high-quality 4-H programming that adapts to the needs of military families. Through collaboration with land-grant universities nationwide, the project will enable Air and Space Force-connected youth to participate in 4-H clubs, camps, and other positive youth development experiences. Additionally, the project will provide professional development for Department of the Air Force Child and Youth Program (CYP) professionals to enhance their ability to deliver robust, research-based youth programming on installations and in local communities. The grant period runs from September 15, 2024 to September 14, 2025. A sub-award of $250,217 was made to the University of Maryland, College Park to support the "Department of the Air Force 4-H Military Partnership Outreach & Support Program Outside the Continental United States." This sub-project will focus on ensuring equity in 4-H programming offered at overseas Department of the Air Force CYP centers, which face unique challenges compared to their continental U.S. counterparts.
