Project Title: New Voices Are Rising
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
New Voices Are Rising empowers disadvantaged BIPOC youth in the Bay Area to drive environmental justice by bridging the nature gap, engaging in hands on field-based learning labs, and connecting them with their community. Led by BIPOC youth from their communities who understand their challenges, New Voices consists of 1) an intensive 6-week Summer Climate Justice Leadership Academy for 25+ low-income BIPOC high school students aged 14-18 from heavily impacted Bay Area communities and 2) a School-Year Fellowship program for 8+ Academy graduates. During the Summer Academy, youth have a chance to get out into their communities and explore pressing environmental issues through nature-based STEAM driven hands-on outdoor learning labs (50%) in collaboration with local partners complemented by group workshops and discussion (50 %); taking 7 one-day field trips and a 2-day overnight camping trip to local green spaces and wild lands where youth get a chance to leave their day to day lives, unplug from screens, have fun, frolic in nature, and observe wildlife while developing new skills, building meaningful relationships, and having an experience of a lifetime. In the school year, motivated participants continue as Fellows, deepening their engagement through independent projects and externships focused on learning and experiences made in the Summer. Each Fellow meets weekly to share information and work on group efforts. Projects engage community members in impactful activities aimed at improving their local environment, from designing plans for more green infrastructure to addressing air quality and climate change. Externships provide real-world exposure, preparing youth for successful career paths. Your support enables underserved Bay Area youth to access transformative outdoor experiences and leadership opportunities, fostering a more equitable future.<\/p>\n
