Education Program Goal
"Enhance people’s ability and willingness to make informed decisions and take responsible actions that affect coastal communities and ecosystems."*
Healthy estuaries and estuarine ecosystems are valuable to every member of society and those who become aware of estuarine processes and issues will be better equipped to protect estuarine environments, both presently and in the future. The Reserve System Education Program strives to enhance student, teacher and public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of estuaries by providing hands-on, investigative field experiences, curriculum and information material, multi-exposure opportunities, teacher training programs, and public outreach events. |
* As stated in the Reserve System Strategic Plan 2005-2010.
