Volunteers

Reach out to your Holmes County 4-H Agent at 850-547-1108 or lauenc@ufl.edu to express your interest and discuss what 4-H activities are already scheduled.

Talk about your desire to start and lead a 4-H Club or find out how you can simply support activities that are already in existence.

Create an adult volunteer profile in 4-H Online. If you already have a 4-H Online account for your children, you can sign in with the same credentials.

If you are new to 4-H Online, click “Don’t Have an Account?” and create one.

- Select “Florida”, click on “UF IFAS Extension”, select “Holmes”, and complete your personal info to create the account.

TRAINING - After creating a profile and “logging in”, select the “ Trainings” tab. Click “+New Training”. Click on the “Youth Protection Training”. Complete the training (30-40 mins) and pass the short assessment.

FINGERPRINTS - After the assessment is complete, your 4-H Agent will submit your information to the state office to start the screening process. Within a few weeks, the state office will contact your local 4-H Agent to confirm that you are ready to schedule your fingerprints. Once notified, your 4-H Agent will contact you and ask you to call the state office to verify your personal information and schedule fingerprints at your convenience.

Once you have completed the screening process, simply jump in and help volunteer! Reach out to the Holmes County 4-H Agent at 850-547-1108 to see if there are any emerging needs.
