Mike Sisk, District 4 Commissioner discusses funding 4-H programs. He also questions the affordability of Agricultural Extension Services - "ACES" photo by G. Morgan
Will the current Jackson County Commission cut the 4-H or Agriculture Extension Services? Does the current county commissioners understand the political liability of such moves?
WHAT IS ACES?
Before any cut in the Jackson County 4-H Program funding, the pay for the county commissioners should be reduced by 99%!
After that cut, the commissioners should find funding for 4-H by begging on the streets if necessary.
4-H WAY
"4‑H empowers young people with the skills to lead for a lifetime. It’s a research-based experience that includes a mentor, a hands-on project, and a meaningful leadership opportunity." More information on the 4H program - https://4-h.org/about/what-is-4-h/
