National Institute of Food and Agriculture
Title: National 4-H Conference Registration Form, Leadership
Position Interest Form, and Scholarship Interest Form.
OMB Control Number: 0524-New.
Summary of Collection: The National 4-H Conference is known as the
``Secretary's Conference'' and has been the flagship youth development
opportunity of USDA since 1927. The objectives of the National 4-H
Conference are to: develop the next generation of leaders; increase
youth familiarity with the government and future career opportunities;
and provide an opportunity for young people involved in 4-H in rural,
urban, and Tribal communities to share their voice on a national level
with the federal government through a Youth Perspective Briefing.
The National 4-H Conference is administered by the U.S. Department
of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture
(NIFA). The statutory authority for the Conference is under Section
7511(f)(2) of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (Pub. L.
110-246), as amended.
Need and Use of the Information: All land-grant colleges and
universities are invited to select and send high school aged 4-H
members along with adult chaperones to the National 4-H Conference.
Each is encouraged to partner within their state to select a diverse
state delegation based on age, background, geographic distribution,
and/or experience with the 4-H program. The selected youth must be 15
to 19 years old during the dates in which the National 4-H Conference
is held to participate. NIFA will collect information using the
Registration Form, Leadership Interest Form, and the Scholarship
Interest Form. The information collected is used by NIFA and the
logistics company to ensure youth and adults who would like to attend,
serve in leadership, or apply for a scholarship role at the National 4-
H Conference can be contacted, submit activity and dietary preferences,
meet eligibility requirements, and provide the permissions required by
law such as parental/guardian consent.
If NIFA were unable to collect this data, then the USDA NIFA
National 4-H Conference would be unable to support the successful
planning and delivery of activities associated with the National 4-H
Conference.
Description of Respondents: Individuals or households.
Number of Respondents: 400.
