Description:  In this project, 4-H members explore the many forms of diversity in daily life, see life from various perspectives, and have fun learning about new situations and people who are different from them. The experience concludes with a “capstone project” of the member’s choosing. In addition to addressing academic standards from the National Alliance for Secondary Education and Transition, the activities in the project build these life skills: valuing diversity, critical thinking, interacting with others, being empathetic, processing information, making decisions, and being a responsible citizen.
