National 4-H Council is the national, private sector non-profit partner of 4-H and the Cooperative Extension System. Council's mission is to advance the 4-H youth development movement to build a world in which youth and adults learn, grow and work together as catalysts for positive change. We work closely with National 4-H Headquarters at USDA and state and local 4-H programs by providing training and support, curriculum development, fostering innovative programming, and facilitating meetings and connections within the 4-H partnership. This 4-H Volunteer Leaders Web site is one example of the work on behalf of the 4-H youth development movement promoted through National 4-H Council.
