7/17/25 update - Please don't join yet. We are working on getting our Projects finalized. Please check back soon, or come to our Open House on Thurs day 9/4/25.

Check out the Projects offered and review meetings times on the Calendar.

Certain projects have limited enrollment, those projects will fill up based on the order of payment completed in Step 3.

Follow instructions below for Step 2.

Tip: do not use mobile, only use laptop or desktop. https://4h.zsuite.org this will take 10-15 minutes to complete all of the waivers, do not leave any lines blank. Refresh the browser if the site doesn't load on the first try.

Pay the $100 annual enrollment fee at ucanr.edu making sure to mark Redwood 4-H as your Club/Unit. Adults DO NOT need to pay $30.

It may take a few days after you have paid for your ZSuite enrollment to switch from "Pending" to "Active". There is only one County Staff person verifying enrollment.

New Youth Members

(never enrolled in 4-H)

Step 2 New families will create a new household profile in the ZSuite system.

(A laptop or desktop is recommended, do not use mobile phone)

Select "Redwood 4-H Club" under +Add Unit. Select "Member" under Unit Roles.

Add as many Redwood 4-H Projects as you are interested in. You can only add them this one time. If you want to drop a Project let us know and we can have County remove you. (It's faster in the system to remove you then add another project later.)
It takes 10-15 minutes to fill out the county online registration and sign the waivers. Do not leave any fields blank or it will send you back to find the ones you missed.

Step 3. Lastly, pay annual $100* enrollment fee online on surveys.ucanr.edu website.
Print or save a PDF of your receipt. County office will review payment and complete your youth's enrollment changing status from 'pending' to 'active'.

Make sure to check "Redwood 4-H" as your primary club in ZSuite and ucanr.edu.

Returning Youth Members

**DO NOT** create a new profile if you have been enrolled at any time prior to July 2023.

Families that were active in 4-H online anytime from 2018 to 2023, will have the same login email for ZSuite, but will need to click "Forgot Password" and reset the password. The link is on the system login page.

Step 2 Reset your password then update information and sign waivers.

- Teens who would like to receive 4-H emails directly can add their contact info on their individual profile.

- Sign up for projects in ZSuite.

Step 3 Pay annual enrollment fee online ($100*) and print or save a PDF of your receipt. County office will review payment and complete your youth's enrollment changing status from 'pending' to 'active'. Do not pay $30 for Adults, you only need to pay $100 per youth.

Make sure to check "Redwood 4-H" as your primary club/unit in ZSuite and ucanr.edu.

* For reduction or waiver of youth enrollment fees, please fill out the fee Waiver Form (available when registration opens) and see more details and FAQ here.

Redwood 4-H Club Leaders will email you which projects you have successfully signed up for, and your Project Leader(s) will contact you with more information about Project Meetings. Most projects start in October. You are welcome to come to our First Community Club Meeting on Sept 19th to learn more about Redwood 4-H activities.

4-H youth membership is $100* paid to Alameda County 4-H. The money goes to 4-H county and state, and not our club. Annual fee allows youth to join projects offered by our club as well as county wide projects and covers insurance, trainings and volunteer background checks.

Parents/Adults DO NOT need to sign up nor pay $30, (only Project Leaders need to sign up and Redwood 4-H will pay their $30 fee).
