The youth development education program of Virginia Cooperative Extension, 4-H is rich with learning experiences in which young people partner with caring adults and volunteers in a fellowship unlike any other program available to youth today. Through 4-H, young people are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities that emphasize 4-H's "learning by doing" philosophy of youth development.

Enrollment - If you plan to use 4-H materials in your classroom and estimate that your students will have 6+ hours of exposure over the course of the school year, we ask that you complete this quick form for VCE reporting purposes.
