Environmental Educators:   A Natural for Arkansas

Arkansas promotes itself as the Natural State because of the rich and abundant diversity of our natural systems. In order to preserve and conserve this unique and irreplaceable heritage it is necessary to educate the people of Arkansas about matters affecting the maintenance of Arkansas as the natural state.  Thus, the Arkansas Environmental Education Association provides great opportunities for environmental educators to network and share their successes.

Environmental Education increases public awareness and knowledge about environmental issues and provides the skills to make informed decisions and take responsible actions.  It is based on objective and scientifically sound information.  It does not advocate a particular viewpoint or course of action.  It teaches individuals how to weigh various sides of an issue through critical thinking and it enhances their own problem-solving and decision making skills. 

 The AEEA Board of Directors has set some high goals for this year.  We will be offering mini grants, two workshops, as well as other great benfits to our members.  Our other main goal for the year is to reach a membership of 100+ members!!!!  Join now so you don't miss any of the great events coming soon!
