About
Welcome to 4-H in Tehama County
The 4-H Youth Development Program is an important portion of the University of California Cooperative Extension. This non formal educational program is made available in Tehama County through a partnership of county, state, and federal governments.
The mission of the University of California 4-H Youth Development Program (YDP) is to engage youth in reaching their fullest potential while advancing the field of youth development. This is accomplished by engaging youth through the use of research-based, learning-by-doing, educational experiences.4-H is a family affair. This means that parents are an important part of our program. Parental involvement is one of the keys to a successful 4-H program. Parents find the 4-H program valuable in helping them to help their children. Our young people discover that the 4-H approach is fun, exciting, and rewarding.
The 4-H Program Community Educators principle responsibility to work with parents, other adult volunteers, and the community to develop a youth program which is most appropriate for the young people of Tehama County.
If any of us can assist you better, please do not hesitate to ask. We would like to help you “make the best better”!
California 4-H has offered a 4-H Families Handbook as well.
