All youth activities offered by CCE-Niagara fall under the 4-H umbrella, whether they happen after school, in the summer, or as a workshop, club, camp or special event. 4-H programs are offered in a wide variety of formats and places because they're designed to fit the interests and needs of the diverse young people who live in our rural and urban communities. Over 1,000 young people aged 5 to 19 participate in 4-H activities in Niagara County each year. The Niagara County 4-H Program includes 4-H Clubs, the 4-H Day Camp, the Independent Living Skills Program and the Legislative Intern Program.
