Healthy Relationships
The purpose of this program is to increase health knowledge and motivate 4-H’ers
and families to try new health habits and to improve others. This program shows

everyday choices that lead to good health such as these specific actions:
- picture and identify all the people connected to you
- discover your friendability and how to make the best better
- boost your listening power
- use words to help, not hurt
- know the keys to smart relationships
- build clear relationship boundaries
