4-H Program
The four H’s are head, heart, hands, and health. That means we are committed to providing opportunities for youth to learn life skills like decision-making, problem solving, caring for others, generosity, making healthy choices, and more. 4-H involves youth in project-based education. Through project learning, youth can explore their interests (“sparks”) and master new skills.
