Teaching About Wetlands
Since 1985
Environmental Concern's (EC) Education Division works to increase understanding of, foster appreciation for, and encourage the stewardship of wetland systems. This is accomplished through materials and curriculum development, schoolyard habitat development, youth programming, and innovative outreach programs.
Our Education Division offer workshops and other
professional development opportunities for educators and wetland
practioners. We have worked with elementary, middle schools, and
high schools to create hundreds of schoolyard habitats.
