H CAPITAL Afterschool Instructor

About the Program

H CAPITAL inspires youth to develop into inquiring scientists, citizens of character, partners in service, and engaged community members through participation in project‑based learning experiences and collaborative community involvement. 4‑H CAPITAL provides high‑quality after school enrichment programs that focus on science, engineering, and technology. We provide hands‑on learning experiences that not only help youth become successful adults but also reduce risk‑taking behaviors that inhibit success.

By establishing positive relationships with the youth we serve, 4‑H CAPITAL allows our 4‑H Club members to acquire science and inquiry‑based knowledge and skills, build character, and develop life skills in a fun learning environment that will enable them to become self‑directing, productive members of society. 4‑H CAPITAL began in 1992 as a 5‑year USDA grant. Adopted by Travis County in 1997, the program received its first Ameri Corps grant in 2003;

since then, Ameri Corps funding has been continuously renewed annually. Our team consists of staff instructors, curriculum area coordinators, administrators, and Ameri Corps members who provide high‑quality after school programming at elementary and middle school campuses across Travis County.
