4-H Leaders Page

Forms

4-H is a community of young people across America who are learning leadership, citizenship and life skills.

		The 4 H’s represent four basic human needs. Research indicates that youth whose basic needs are met in positive ways are likely to grow into active citizens and contributing members of their families and communities.
		Head: By exercising independence through 4-H leadership and project opportunities, youth mature in self-discipline and responsibility and learn to understand themselves better.
		Heart: The 4-H program cultivates a strong sense of connection and belonging, giving youth the opportunity to feel safe physically and emotionally while actively participating in a group.
		Hands: Within our program, youth can connect to communities and learn to value generosity and give back to others.
		Health: Youth need to feel and believe that they are capable of solving problems and meeting challenges to develop their self-confidence. By exploring 4-H projects and activities, youth develop a sense of mastery, gain life skills and are more equipped to make positive career and life choices.
