A longtime advocate for youth development and agricultural education is being honored at the state level for her years of service and impact across multiple parishes.

Louisiana 4-H Hall of Fame has inducted Mimi Stoker in recognition of her contributions to the 4-H program and youth development efforts across Louisiana.

Although Stoker currently resides in Natchitoches Parish, she previously served as an extension agent in Sabine Parish for many years, where she played a key role in supporting 4-H programs, student leadership development, and agricultural education initiatives.

Local officials and community members in Sabine Parish congratulated Stoker on the prestigious honor, noting her lasting impact on students, families, and educators throughout her years of service in the parish.

In a statement, Sabine Parish representatives expressed appreciation for her dedication and leadership, saying they were proud but not surprised to see her receive such a well-deserved statewide recognition.

The Louisiana 4-H Hall of Fame honors individuals who have made significant, long-term contributions to the 4-H program and its mission of developing youth through hands-on learning and leadership experiences.

Stoker’s induction highlights her legacy of service and the continued influence of her work within Sabine Parish and beyond.
