Volunteers are a vital part of the Florida 4-H program, and we want you to be a successful and effective 4-H volunteer. Part of that success comes from training and preparation as well as resources and materials to help you in your role.
This site houses training and resources to help you as a 4-H volunteer - no matter your role or responsibility. Training is arranged by topic. Training length is also noted so you can train on your own time schedule. We also offer in-person trainings throughout the year.
We value our volunteers in the Northwest Extension District. Thank you for your time and service with 4-H developing the leaders of tomorrow.
