Open to youth in grades 4-12, 4-H offers opportunities for every interest, whether it's science and technology, agriculture, healthy living, creative arts, public speaking, or community service.

Our members participate in a wide variety of educational programs and events throughout the year, including camps, contests, leadership conferences, gardening projects, livestock exhibitions, STEM activities, cooking and nutrition programs, and community service initiatives. From robotics and graphic design to livestock judging and photography, 4-H helps youth explore new interests while developing skills that prepare them for college, careers, and life.

At its core, 4-H is about empowering young people to learn by doing, make meaningful connections, give back to their communities, and discover their potential. No matter a child's interests or background, there's a place for them in Calcasieu Parish 4-H.
