What is 4-H?

4-H is for boys and girls, grades K-12. The program emphasizes "learning by doing" for the growth and development of youth. 4-H is the nation's largest Positive Youth Development Program. Through our unique partnership with USU Extension we are able to provide opportunities for youth throughout Utah! 4-H offers a wide variety of programs, after school, projects, contests, camps and events from livestock to sewing, and leadership to robotics!

4-H is run through volunteer-led clubs. 4-H clubs are a safe place to explore new interests, learn through trial and error and make new friends --all while having the support of a caring mentor.
