About Georgia 4-H
4-H is the nation’s largest youth leadership development organization, empowering nearly six million young people across the U.S. with the skills to lead for a lifetime, and Georgia is proud to be one of the largest state programs in the country with almost 170,000 active 4-H’ers across the state. The four H’s symbolize the development of the HEAD (to think, plan, and reason), the HEART (to be concerned with the welfare of others, accept the responsibility of citizenship and develop positive attitudes), the HANDS (to be useful, helpful and skillful) and HEALTH (to practice healthy living, enjoy life and use time wisely). 4-H is a major partner in education. Lessons taught, experiences shared, and information presented in 4-H are based on the research of the University of Georgia and Fort Valley State University.
Mission:
- The mission of Georgia 4-H is to assist youth in acquiring knowledge, developing life skills, and forming attitudes that will enable them to become self-directing, productive, and contributing members of society. This mission is accomplished through “hands-on” learning experiences, focused on agricultural and environmental issues, agriculture awareness, leadership, communication skills, food and nutrition, health, energy conservation, and citizenship.
