Volunteer Resources

Competent, caring adult volunteers are an Essential Element of the Iowa 4-H program!
 

Volunteers contribute their time and talents to 4-H and in return 4-H has the responsibility to provide them with the positive youth development knowledge and skills they need to effectively work with youth. Our volunteers are what help our 4-H'ers grow into true leaders. 

All volunteers must complete and Iowa State University Extension Child Protection and Safety Policy (CPSP) process, including a background screening and agree to the Code of Conduct for Iowa 4-H Volunteers.
