Teach ME Outside is a multipronged initiative to ensure that all Maine youth have access to powerful, hands-on environmental learning opportunities. One of the best ways we can advocate for equitable access for ALL youth across Maine is to communicate the work we are doing. The tools below will help you communicate the importance of environmental and outdoor learning in your own communities and contexts.
