4-H can give your child an edge in life. 4-H offers
opportunities! 4-H is fourfold development.
- Caring Adults act as advisers and leaders for clubs, camps and
activities. Each is selected, screened, and trained by
WVU Extension professionals, who
guide the 4-H program.
- Neighborhood Clubs give older and younger members a place to
belong, a place to identify and practice positive values, build
leadership, and have fun!
- Special Events and Programs at the local,
state, and national levels support educational and developmental goals
through camps; through skill development events;
and through exhibits, fairs, and challenging contests.
- Individualized Learning Experiences let each child choose from
more than 100 projects to develop unique interests and skills and explore
new ideas. Each project is developed by experts to help children learn by
doing.
- Leadership Development is nurtured with special emphasis placed
on developing communication and decision-making skills.
