Through an application process, each spring up to (30) youth are selected from across Texas to serve as 4-H Water Ambassadors. Those chosen participate in a Tier I 4-H2O Leadership Academy – a multi-day tour of Texas aimed at exposing youth to a wide diversity of water issues. Following the Academy, youth commit to a minimum of (40) hours of water education and service in their communities. Those who complete their service commitment may continue as 4-H Water Ambassador in successive years until they graduate high school and
are no longer age-eligible to serve. Year 2 (Tier II), year 3 (Tier III) and year 4 (Tier IV) 4-H Water Ambassadors participate in 4-H2O Leadership Academies which focus on a different region of Texas, and renew their annual education and service commitment throughout their remaining terms of service.
