4-H Volunteer Resources
Become a Volunteer
Make a difference in the lives of young people by becoming a 4-H volunteer. Share your skills, interests, and experiences while helping youth develop leadership, confidence, and life skills through hands-on learning opportunities. Whether you lead a club, assist with events, mentor youth, or support programs behind the scenes, there is a volunteer role for everyone. Join our dedicated team of volunteers and help create positive experiences that empower the next generation. In order to be eligible to be a volunteer, adults need to enroll on 4-HOnline, complete volunteer trainings, and meet with Jordan.
Steps to Volunteer

The Volunteer Interest Form helps us learn more about your skills, interests, and volunteer goals. Your responses will help us connect you with meaningful 4-H opportunities that match your experience, availability, and passions.
Connect with our 4-H Educator
This meeting can take place in person or via Zoom. We’ll get to know one another, learn more about your volunteer interests, and discuss how your skills and passions can make a positive impact through the 4-H program.
