North Jersey Youth Outreach Committee
Help provide outdoor experiences for youth in the Bergen/Passaic County region
The Youth Outreach Committee plans nature walks in local parks for elementary and middle school youth. It outreaches to high schools and youth organizations to encourage local teenagers to become organizers of these events, so that all can appreciate the value of the outdoors.
The committee creates liaisons with local schools, parents, other youth groups, and Sierra Club certified hike leaders to help young people learn to appreciate and protect the planet as they explore the natural world.
The Committee uses social media to expand participation, as the group conforms to the goals of the national Sierra Club.
If you are outdoors-oriented along with having an affinity for working with youth, this opportunity is for you!
The North Jersey Group serves Bergen and Passaic Counties. Applicants should (but are not required to) live in one of these counties.
