4-H Grows True Leaders

4-H empowers young people to be true leaders. True leaders are young people who have confidence; know how to work well with others; can endure through challenges; and will stick to a job until it gets done. In 4-H, we believe true leaders aren’t born, they're grown. The 4-H experience is proven to grow true leaders with life skills like confidence, independence, resilience and compassion.

  • Youth leadership academy-a weekend long trip for teen leaders and ambassadors who want to improve their skills and make friends with their 4-H peers across the state.
