What is 4-H?

4-H is the “hands-on" Youth Development Program of Cornell Cooperative Extension. 4-H provides informal educational opportunities that will enable youth to become the leaders of tomorrow. 4-H is open to all youth ages 5 through 19, regardless of race, religion, color or sex. Youth must be residents of Sullivan County for at least part of the year.

Career Explorations

4-H Career Explorations is a three-day event for youth held on the Cornell University campus each summer. Its purpose is to expose youth to academic fields and careers, to develop leadership skills, to provide hands-on experience in a college setting and to introduce youth to Cornell University. The event is made up of two grade specific tracts: University U for youth entering grades 8-9 and Focus for Teens for youth entering grades 10-12.
