4H Youth Development Program FAQs
An MOU is used to clarify roles and responsibilities between the collaborating parties, while addressing liability, indemnification, insurance, and other risk factors. It is a great way for programs to begin projects with clear expectations or to aid in managing existing projects to ensure the continued success of our programs.
An MOU is a memorandum of understanding which is a simple agreement meant to outline a collaboration between two or more parties.
You should always have an MOU if you are delivering programmatic lessons, workshops, and/or activities on non-UC property, such as at a school, library, community organization, etc.

While we strongly prefer to use electronic signatures, “wet” signatures can be obtained. Keep in mind this process takes much longer to complete. “Wet” signatures also require the following:
1. To be mailed to the appropriate ANR person with authority to sign. PCPA will direct you on the appropriate person and address
2. Include return envelope and necessary postage with return address.
3. Print the same number of “original” copies as there are parties to the agreement (e.g., if there are two parties, you need two copies, one for each party, etc.).
