4H and Youth Development

4-H Youth Development education creates supportive learning environments for youth and adults to reach their fullest potential as capable, competent, and caring citizens. In support of this mission, we will:

• Provide formal and non-formal community-focused experiential learning
• Develop skills that benefit youth throughout life
• Foster leadership and volunteerism in youth and adults
• Build internal and external youth/adult partnerships for programming and funding
• Strengthen families and communities
• Use research-based knowledge and the land-grant university system

Achievement of this mission will result in capable, competent, and caring citizens.

I Pledge...
My Head to clearer thinking,
My Heart to greater loyalty,
My Hands to larger service,
And my Health to better living,
for my club, my community,
my country, and my world
