4-H Programs
4-H club/council programs can enhance family communications and quality time together. It creates an environment for a caring relationship between a young person and a significant adult, whether this is a family member, other adult, or teen volunteer. These activities provide the opportunity for immediate gratification to the youth and satisfaction and self-worth to the adult/teen leader who acts as teacher and role model for younger 4-H youth members. Each local 4-H club/council is guided under the administration of the 4-H County Extension Agent and 4-H club/council information is delivered by 4-H volunteers and staff who are registered in the 4-H Online system and endorsed as a volunteer/staff through the N.C. Cooperative Extension background check process.
