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 4-H Saskatchewan club must have two screened volunteers to be registered. If you have any questions, please contact the office!
