Volunteer Screening
To ensure we are providing a safe environment for our 4-H members to Learn To Do By Doing, volunteer screening is a mandatory process for all 4-H clubs across the country. Volunteer Screening has been in place in 4-H Saskatchewan since 1999.

Each Saskatchewan 4-H Club must be led by at least two adults (18 years or older), who are not 4-H members:

- The club must ensure the Rule of Two is met. Spouses may be part of a club leadership team but cannot meet the Rule of Two alone. There must always be a third Trained Leader or Screened Volunteer present.
