Earth Force Can Help You:
Strengthen Your Mission and Goals
Whether your organization's mission focuses on environmental conservation, youth engagement, or education equity, our Environmental Action Civics program can align with your goals.
Build Environmental Citizens
You'll learn how to help youth work in partnership with adults to identify a local environmental issue and engage with community members to take action by advocating for systemic changes to policies or practices. A central element of Environmental Action Civics is a commitment to prepare youth, especially those from historically marginalized communities, to engage in local environmental decision making now and in the future.
Demonstrate Measurable + Equitable Impact
We have 30 years of experience in data-driven decision-making. Our robust equity-based assessment tools and evaluation metrics track progress, measure impact, and continuously improve outcomes.
How Organizations Use Environmental Action Civics
"The Earth Force strategy is working and helping us to transform learning systems and increase PBL in schools - reaching 800+ students per year."
Integrating Environmental Action Civics (EAC) in our 5th grade watershed program is helping us to improve our program by engaging students in action-oriented skills and behaviors that reflect what they are learning about. Furthermore, it is helping us to expand our reach to what is often the whole school body through action projects using the EAC process.
The team at Ciudad Soil and Water attended a Core Environmental Action Civics training in 2023 and has received ongoing support to integrate Environmental Action Civics into their programming to support their mission of promoting the conservation, improvement and responsible use of the natural resources on the rural and urban lands within its boundaries.
"It is a perfect complement to our overall mission to support and coach educators and students in resilience-building opportunities and real-world application."
It's been awesome to bring Environmental Action Civics to Montana educators and students, especially because it has allowed us a different and meaningful way to engage with schools and communities. We've also really enjoyed connecting directly with more students, supporting them in exploring their communities in ways they otherwise would not have done, which has also bubbled up how much they care about others, shown in their various RISE Challenge projects.
