Enrollment for one of the best positive youth development programs in Texas has opened up for the new year. The new 4-H year began Sept. 1 in all 254 counties in Texas.
As part of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, the Texas 4-H Youth Development Program provides inclusive opportunities to youths aged 8 to 18 in grades 3-12 for personal growth, community service and fun. Texas 4-H reaches around 500,000 youth per year.
By joining a club in their county, youth can participate in one or many projects with 43 diverse options to choose from in agriculture and livestock, family and community health, leadership and citizenship, natural resources and science, technology engineering and math. Youth gain life skills while giving back to their community and making new friends.
