Sharpen your voice, share your story, and inspire others.
The 4-H Communication and Public Speaking project empowers you to confidently express your ideas—whether you’re giving a speech, leading a meeting, writing for impact, or sharing your thoughts one-on-one. Through hands-on practice and creative challenges, you’ll develop the skills to inform, persuade, and connect with any audience.
Contact your county Extension office to get involved!
Public Speaking Competitions
Public speaking skills can be put to work in many ways—from competing in county and regional contests to representing your area at 4-H Congress. Youth can lead club lessons, host community events, take on leadership roles like 4-H Council, or serve as 4-H represenatives for your region. Whether on stage, in meetings, or at special events, every experience builds confidence and strengthens communication skills.
