Educational Programming

You work hard every day to protect our environment, but it takes a village to create lasting stewardship. Not only are you charged with creating rules and plans to protect resources, you also need to communicate with the public about why they are important. Educational programming is a way to move concepts from paper and websites into the real world. Engaging the public in environmental improvement can help amplify progress and allow you to reach large-scale goals faster.

Young Environmental helps partners spread their mission to the broader community, communicating user-friendly water resources information to like-minded water management organizations and the public. From program development and management to communication tools like signage and social media, we can help tell the story of the important work you are doing day-to-day. Events such as river tours, community open houses, and demonstrations can be impactful to showcase projects and involve stakeholders more fully in the resources surrounding them.
