New Jersey 4-H provides educational outreach programming for youth in grades K-13 (one year out of high school) through 4-H clubs, special interest programs, school enrichment, afterschool programs, and overnight camping.

New Jersey 4-H Youth Development is a department of the Rutgers New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station.
