The EE Advisory Council is a twice-yearly assembly of the state’s EE leaders. As a member of the Alliance, you are invited to be part of the EE Advisory Council, and lend your knowledge, experience and leadership to this visionary group. If you are interested in shaping environmental education or finding out where we’re going in Colorado, you should be at this meeting.
On the Agenda:
With pending adoption of a state environmental education plan and three schools recently recognized by the US Department of Education with a Green Ribbon Award, there is tremendous momentum supporting environmental education and environmental education providers. However, at the same time, schools and districts are facing unprecedented budget cuts and over $40 million dollars supporting environmental education was cut from the federal budget. In light of these barriers, how can we provide the tools, resources, programs, and expertise necessary to ensure Coloradans have access to environmental education? Join us to help set the direction for the implementation of the state’s environmental education plan. Explore and provide feedback on CAEE’s new online tools to advance environmental literacy and provide meaningful feedback on what tools and resources are still needed.
