Healthy Living

Healthy Living

Health is one of the foundations of the 4-H pledge – it’s at the core of what we do. Through our healthy living programs, 4-H youth are learning how to lead lives that balance physical, emotional, and social health. They are learning not only how to make smart and healthy decisions for themselves but also to give back to their communities so their friends and families can do the same.

4-H youth are creating change with the issues that matter the most to young people today – nutrition, childhood obesity, drug awareness, bullying, safe driving, suicide prevention, decision-making, and stress management.
