What is 4-H?
4-H is America’s largest youth development organization—empowering nearly six million young people across the U.S. with the skills to lead for a lifetime.
In 4‑H, we believe in the power of young people. We see that every child has valuable strengths and real influence to improve the world around us.
Upson County 4-H is a program of the University of Georgia Extension in collaboration with Upson County (county government).
4-H 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 STEAM & Agriculture, Healthy Living, and Citizenship.
4-H stands for Head, Heart, Hands and Health. You can learn more about this by clicking the image below.
