Abstract
McLaughlin (2000) states, “Young people with nothing to do during out-of school hours miss valuable chances for growth and development” (p. 2). It is important that youth organizations utilize this time to strengthen the life skills of area adolescents. In this quantitative study, life skills from Hendrick’s Targeting Life Skills Model (1998) were rated by youth involved in the 4-H program and other out-of-school time (OST) activities. Youth included in this research project were from Cottonwood County, which is located in southwestern Minnesota. The results allowed comparisons to be made on which life skills youth perceive to have gained the most and least.
