It is carried out with thesupport of award donors and other cooperators. National 4-H Congress is keyed to the interest of those 4-H delegates who have achieved high standards of excellence in their 4-H project work. Congress provides new and stimulating educational and cultural experiences which contribute to personal growth and leadership-citizenship development. It focuses on public attention on outstanding 4-H members, 4-H values and provides a forum for interaction and exchange of ideas.

Congress is held in late fall, usually starting on Thanksgiving weekend. Visit the National 4H Congress website at www.fourhcouncil.edu.
