Guam 4-H Youth Development Program

Empowering young people with the skills to lead for a lifetime

4-H is America's largest youth development organization. 4-H programs are delivered through the Cooperative Extension function of more than 100 land-grant universities across the nation. The programs are collectively working toward a common mission of assisting youth in acquiring knowledge, developing skills, and forming attitudes that will enable them to become self-directing, productive, and contributing members of society.

The 4-H mission is carried out through the involvement of parents, volunteer leaders, and other adults who organize educational events and experiences in community and family settings. These hands-on, learn-by-doing experiences are supported by research and extension functions represented by the land-grant universities, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and cooperating local governments with support from the National 4-H Council and other private support.
