The objective of the Environmental Education Outreach Program was to meet with youth of diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds from inner-city and urban areas and to identify their concerns and knowledge about the environment and natural resources. [UMN]
"Over the last four years, 58 summer interns hired by the USDA Forest Service reached out to 19,000 children. Hands-on activities, presented in a variety of settings from day camps, parks, to city streets stretched the youths knowledge of natural resources. Challenges and approaches to addressing them are discussed." [Abstract]
