4-H relies on dedicated volunteers to promote its mission to help youth gain the knowledge and life skills they need to be productive, responsible citizens. Your time as a volunteer will provide youth the safe environment they need to pursue whatever interests, causes, and leadership roles that are most important to them.
How to Become a 4-H Volunteer
The steps to become a 4-H volunteer aren't too complicated.
First, you want to reach out to Shaina Spann, 4-H Youth Development Agent, and schedule a time to go over what the current volunteer opportunities are. Next, you will need to go to https://v2.4honline.com, create a family profile, and then create a personal profile. Once in 4-H Online, you will be prompted to take a Youth Protection Training, this is required annually when enrolling for the 4-H year. From there, the enrollment will be sent to the 4-H office, once the potential volunteer has been fingerprinted and the background check comes back approved, the 4-H Online enrollment will be approved by the Florida 4-H Office.
All Florida 4-H Volunteers are FBI Level 2 background checked to ensure the safety of all 4-H youth.
