RI 4-H is the youth outreach education program of
Cooperative Extension in the University
of Rhode Island’s
College of the Environment and Life Sciences.
From the beginning, a century ago, this youth-serving organization
offered "hands-on" learning activities for young people so they
might become productive citizens. Today youth participate in educational
programs that are based in Science and Technology, Healthy Lifestyles and
Citizenship. There are many more 4-H PROJECT
areas within
those broad program areas. Self
directed study and “Learning by Doing” are key to
the attraction and success of the 4-H program. Four-H members learn: biology concepts by
actually working with animals and plants, health by learning to read food
labels and fix their Bicycles and cooperation by working with their peers in
groups. These are some examples of the
programs and projects 4-H groups do. To Join 4-H click here to get more
