UADA Hot Spring County 4-H

4-H is the premier youth development program conducted by the University of Arkansas System, Division of Agriculture, Cooperative Extension Service.

4-H--the four H’s we emphasize are: Head, Heart, Hands, and Health--is designed to prepare young people to step up to the challenges in their communities and provide youth with the skills to lead for a lifetime. The core elements of 4-H include youth

leadership, youth-adult partnerships, life skills learning, and community service. 4‑H programs are grounded in the belief that youth learn best by doing. 4-H members complete hands-on projects in areas like science, health, agriculture, and citizenship in a positive environment where they receive guidance from adult mentors and are encouraged to take on proactive leadership roles. What AR 4-H Offers
We offer a wide variety of hands-on, learn-by-doing opportunities for everyone. Youth can concentrate on one area or they can try an assortment of programs throughout their 4‑H experience. Based on their interests and guided by adult mentors, youth develop their own pathway in 4‑H with the ultimate goal of learning life skills to help them thrive today and tomorrow.

4-H is conducted in many forms including community clubs, special interest projects, in-school clubs, on military installations, and more, so you can be a part of 4-H wherever you live. Youth between the ages of 5 and 19 are invited to join the 120,000 young people involved in the Arkansas 4-H program. Arkansas 4-H Mission
The mission of 4-H is to provide opportunities for youth to acquire knowledge, develop life skills, form attitudes, and practice behavior that will enable them to become self directing, productive, and contributing members of society. The 4-H emblem is a four-leaf clover with an "H" on each leaf. The letters in the emblem stands for Head, Heart, Hands, and Health. Arkansas 4-H Pledge
