is it? 4-H
is a leader in youth development, which began on the local level in response to
evolving needs for new kinds of educational experiences for youth. From the
beginning, this youth-serving organization offered "hands-on"
learning activities for young people so they might become productive
citizens. Youth participating in 4-H activities have opportunities to offer
positive contributions to our diverse and changing society. 4-H uses the
far-reaching Cooperative Extension System network to offer youth programs and
activities to diverse groups of young people in all 3,150 counties across out
nation SOME
