4-H Youth
According to the 4-H Study of Positive Youth Development conducted by Tufts University young people in 4-H report better grades, are twice as likely to go to college, and are more likely to pursue future courses in a career in science, engineering, or computer technology. 4-H youth are twice as likely to make healthy choices and give back to their community as compared to non-4-H'ers. How can YOU Make the Best Better!
