Illinois 4-H welcomes all youth ages 5 to 18, from all backgrounds, with all interests, wherever they live. They can learn more about the things they like or are curious about. In 4-H, kids and teens will meet mentors and peers in their communities. They can develop new skills, dig deeper in an area of interest, check out careers, and explore the world around them.
