Mission Statement

The Rutgers Cooperative Extension 4-H Youth Development program uses a learn-by-doing approach to enable youth to develop the knowledge, attitudes, and skills they need to become competent, caring, and contributing citizens of the world. This mission is accomplished by using the knowledge and resources of the land-grant university system, along with the involvement of caring adults.

Policy of Inclusion

All possible efforts will be made to include rather than exclude youth in events conducted by the 4-H Youth Development Program.
