Numerous programs around the country focus on getting kids outside, but as with so much of our work, they can often operate in isolation, undermining the potential of a unified framework. This breakfast* panel discussion will present a collective impact model that attempts to unify the various national efforts for a more effective outcome.
Panelists:
– Stacy Bare, Director, Sierra Club Outdoors
– Courtney Aber, National Director for BOLD and GOLD (Boys and Girls Outdoor Leadership Development) at the YMCA
– Chris Rutgers, Executive Director of Transforming Youth Outdoors
*Breakfast is included.
