4-H Youth Development
4-H Youth Development
Brown County 4-H provides opportunities for personal growth of young people throughout Brown County, and encourages the positive development of youth, families, and their communities. Through hands-on, experiential learning, we offer more than 300 programs and projects for youth, 5K through 13th grade, and their families, in a variety of methods.
What is 4-H?
In 4-H, we believe in the power of young people. We see that every child has valuable strengths and real influence to improve the world around us. We are America’s largest youth development organization – empowering nearly six million young people across the U.S. with the skills to lead for a lifetime.
The mission of the Brown County 4-H Program is to provide opportunities for personal growth and to encourage the positive development of youth, their families, and their communities. Brown County 4-H Positive Youth Development is a community of young people, being mentored by adults, coming together to have fun while learning life and leadership skills – from kindergarten through 13th grade!
4-H Projects
4-H projects are one of the primary ways members participate in the program. Every 4-H member selects one or more projects they want to complete during the year, and then participates in a series of educational activities related to the project. These activities provide youth a variety of opportunities to learn new technical, practical, and life skills through hands-on participation. Often these educational activities are led by a volunteer leader.
