Education Programs
With your support, we can inspire future leaders in wildlife conservation
Unique trainings and resources for educators
We offer free ready-to-teach lessons for middle school that challenge stereotypes and feature authentic conservation champions breaking barriers around the world who come from diverse cultural, racial, and ethnic backgrounds. We also provide trainings to help educators bring diverse role models and approaches to environmental literacy into their classrooms.
Free hands-on programs for
middle and high school students
Our planet’s amazing web of biodiversity needs some TLC: Teen Leaders in Conservation! We help teens from under-resourced communities in Washington, DC connect with nature and develop career skills such as public speaking, writing, and project management as they build confidence to tackle environmental action projects at school and in their communities.
Free resources and grants for nature-based field trips
We provide educators with unique resources for facilitating outdoor exploration, including field trip transportation grants and educator guides containing tips for learning about nature, student journal pages, and scavenger hunts that teachers can download to help their students explore the outdoors.
