The annual  4-H Citizenship Youth Forum is one of the most exciting experiences available to high-school-age youth.  Youth must have completed the 8th grade or be at least 14 years old on January 1.

Registration fees for both youth and adults are $95 for early bird registration due by May 1 and $110 after May 1.  Check county registration deadlines.  Registration and health forms must accompany registration fee.  Scholarship applications are due by April 1.

The action packed event provides participants a chance to learn about the Missouri legislative and judicial processes.  Current legislators will be available to assist and teach for the legislative track. The media portion of the workshop involves youth reporting the activities of state government through the use of print, video and radio. All workshop activities use a hands-on approach to help participants.
