WHAT IS 4-H?
A youth program based on an active, learn-by-doing approach.
It is one of the largest educational youth programs in the United States. There are more than 6 million 4-H
members nationwide, and thousands of young people participate in Oregon 4-H each year. Through 4-H
young people, learn and grow in partnership with caring adults to develop the skills and confidence needed to
become contributing, productive, self-directed members of society. Young people can see how their actions
make a difference in the lives of others and the world around them.
CORE VALUES
4-H is based on the current theory, research, and practice of positive youth development.
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?
4-H membership is open to all youth Kindergarten through 12th grade.
In addition to paid faculty and staff who provide leadership to 4-H, many adults and teen volunteers offer
their time and expertise to 4-H. There are many different volunteer roles available. Stop by the extension office
if you are interested.
