EarthWorks
The Center For Youth’s EarthWorks Program offers wilderness education programs that empower youth and families to reconnect with their natural world. We aim to inspire social and environmental sustainability by building a shared responsibility and a future of greater equity.
Winter Programs
As our green spaces transform into a Winter wonderland, EarthWorks continues to venture into the forest to bring families and students more opportunities to engage in one-of-a-kind wilderness programs. Each activity funds larger community initiatives around urban outreach, youth development, and personal wellness. Come experience sustainability in action during the upcoming programs listed below.
