Introduction
As a 4-H volunteer, you must take responsibility to teach life skills to youth to help them reach their full potential. Many of the life skills that members gain through 4-H participation are identified in the Iowa State University Targeting Life Skills Model. 4-H leaders can use this resource with club members to help connect life skills learned through hands-on 4-H projects to real-life experiences. The 4-H Heart Life Skills sheets focus specifically on helping young people connect those life skills under the area of the heart on the Targeting Life Skills Model.
4-H Heart Life Skills include:
- Accepting Differences

Each life skills sheets consists of a list of some of the skills gained through the life skill, a list of specific skills by age group, related activities, age-appropriate discussion questions, learning opportunities and places to find more information.
