Success of Tooele Extension programs depends on volunteer service. You may volunteer in any of the extension areas to strengthen your community.

Youth Development:

Make a difference in the life of local youth by sharing your time and talents. Become a 4-H youth volunteer by assisting in existing 4-H clubs or start your own 4-H club. The clubs in place are livestock, horse, shooting sports, sewing cooking, computer, poultry, insects, and many more. You can also become a youth mentor with the Families and Youth With Promise program. All youth volunteers must fill out an application for background checks and attend volunteer leader training.
