What It’s About

Teen Conservation Crew is a paid opportunity for 9th and 10th grade students to gain hands-on experience in mitigating climate change within our community. Teen Conservation Crew mates participate in resilience-oriented classes and activities, such as dolphin population counts, artificial reef ball construction, horseshoe crab egg density surveys, flood monitoring and more! Throughout their time together, crew mates collaborate and discuss amongst their peers on how to take positive action for the future of our planet.
