Building Social Capital on Purpose: A Toolkit for Youth and Community Development Professionals provides practitioner-scholars with a guide to design and deliver programming that builds youth and community social capital on purpose. As a compilation of research, best practices, practitioner wisdom and decades of experience from across the country, the Toolkit is designed to help professionals gain a better understanding of social capital within the 4-H youth development context, and to design program experiences that more purposefully strengthen youth and community social capital.

The goal of this resource is for readers to apply tools and learning to enhance the overall quality of programming that furthers the goals of engagement, opportunity, and equity for all youth. The Toolkit is a publication of North Central Extension & Research Activity 215 (NCERA 215): Contribution of 4-H Participation to the Development of Social Capital Within Communities, a multi-state research group organized under the North Central Regional Association (NCRA) of State Agricultural Experiment Station Directors.
