The University of Arizona sits on the original homelands of Indigenous peoples who have stewarded this land since time immemorial. Aligning with the university's core value of a diverse and inclusive community, it is an institutional responsibility to recognize and acknowledge the people, culture and history that make up the Wildcat community. At the institutional level, it is important to be proactive in broadening awareness throughout campus to ensure our students feel represented and valued.

Subject: End-Of-Year 4-H Program Evaluation (Get Your questions answered at Java with Jeremy on November 19th)
Importance: High

Good Afternoon Arizona 4-H,

As I mentioned we are really excited to be in our second year of End-of-Year Program Evaluation for Arizona 4-H for both youth and DCCs. We are setting the national trend on this effort and are in a position to contribute considerably to the national conversation in regards to 4-H program quality, and of course to continue being a theoretically and data-informed program that delivers on our claims through evidence. Did you know that there are no other states doing an end of year evaluation for their volunteers? And, this year the National movement has copied our effort by conducting a National 4-H Thriving Index study using a very similar approach to Arizona.

We are asking that every county send out the Annual Survey Staff Email to all youth and families that completed the 2020-2021 4-H Year and to all DCC's that provided service in 2020-2021 directly from your (4-H professionals) e-mail address. We have attached the 2021 4-H Annual Survey Background for you to be informed on the process.  We are asking that the request for completion initially happen before Thanksgiving and then after Thanksgiving as well. Please forward me your initial solicitation so that we can have that on file.

If you have questions DeeDee Avery<mailto:davery at arizona.edu>, Evaluation Specialist with Community Research, Evaluation & Development (CRED) Team will be joining the November 19th Java with Jeremy (9:30-10:15am) to answer your questions.  Please join us and learn about some of the great outcomes that we have already learned because of the initial end-of-year survey that was conducted last year.

Of course, I or Deedee are always happy to answer any questions about this or any other evaluation efforts in Arizona 4-H.

With appreciation,

Jeremy
