4H Youth Development


About 4-H


4-H is a community of young people across America who are learning leadership, citizenship and life skills. 4-H creates a supportive environment for diverse youth and adults to reach their fullest potential.

What is 4-H?
4-H is the nation's largest youth development and empowerment organization. In Wisconsin, more than 150,000 youth in urban, suburban and rural settings are involved with 4-H and other Extension programs. Youth from five-year Kindergarten to one year post high school can learn important life skills like leadership, team work, critical thinking and communication to help prepare them for successful futures - and they do it while engaging in fun, hands-on 4-H activities!

The Positive Youth Development Difference: Research shows that 4-H helps young people excel beyond their peers. The structured learning, encouragement and adult mentoring that young people receive through 4-H plays a vital role in helping them achieve success in life.

Wisconsin 4-H Vision: A world in which youth and adults learn, grow and work together as catalysts for positive change. 

Wisconsin 4-H Mission: 4-H empowers youth to reach their full potential working and learning in partnership with caring adults.
