Counselor-In-Training (CIT)- Week 4
Description
For those who are interested in the CIT program, an application must be filled out and will be reviewed by our 4-H Camp Owahta team. Applications are located in the Document Center

The Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Program is intended for teens ages 16, who are interested in working with youth, gaining practical experience and preparing for a camp counselor role. CITs work closely with staff to learn strategies for camper supervision, activity facilitation techniques, risk management protocols, and safety practices.

Participants will shadow counselors, assist with leading and planning activities, and gradually take on increased responsibility throughout the week under supervision. CITs will track their growth throughout the week through self reflection, group discussions and goal-setting with an emphasis on leadership development, problem-solving skills, interpersonal skills, and teamwork.

The CIT program offers a meaningful hands-on summer experience for youth looking to build transferable workplace skills. Participants will leave the program with increased confidence, experience working with children and peers, a clear understanding of professional expectations, and practical skills such as responsibility and effective communication, that can be applied in a wide range of employment and volunteer settings.
