Self-Determined Family & Consumer Sciences

Objectives

In self-determined projects (created by the youth), earning goals are determined by the member, parent, and leader.;

Youth will decide:

  • What they want to learn
  • How they want to learn it
  • How they want to share what they’ve learned with an audience

If you don’t see your interest area on the 4-H Projects & Programs list, then a self-determined project may be right for you!

Check out Iowa 4-H’s guide to self-determined projects for helpful tips!
