Through partnerships with schools, districts, and environmental organizations, service learning opportunities will be established for civic engagement in NatureBridge students' home communities. This engagement effort includes the creation of new climate literacy curriculum, the application of cutting-edge monitoring technology and online resources for public participation in scientific research, the exposure of youth to STEM career options, and the significant increase in diversity of students served by NatureBridge programming. This work will be informed by and benefit from NOAA assets across our service areas. By strengthening existing and creating new engagement programs throughout our organization, teachers will become fully versed in the principles of environmental and climate literacy. These programs will focus on increasing accessibility, diversifying our participants, and incorporating best practices and climate literacy content.","National Geographic Society, Audubon Center at Debs Park, Cupertino Union School District, Los Angeles Unified School District, San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD), Seattle Public Schools, University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) / Center X, TreePeople, U.S. National Park Service / Pacific West Region, NOAA Climate Program Office (CPO), National Marine Sanctuary (NMS) / Channel Islands, National Marine Sanctuary (NMS) / Olympic Coast, NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), National Museum of Natural History, 5 Gyres, ShareFest Community Development"
