Santa Clara County 4-H Youth Development Program Policy

Chaperone duties may be assigned to adult volunteers upon approval of the 4-H YDP staff. A chaperone is an adult volunteer at least twenty-five (25) years of age. He or she has the responsibility of a delegation of youth at a 4-H YDP event or activity. The event usually lasts more than twenty-four (24) hours with an overnight stay, and often involves travel.
