Do you know someone making a real impact in your community? The Rhode Island Environmental Education Association wants to recognize educators, youth, and organizations who show exceptional leadership, innovation, and dedication to helping others connect with the environment through outdoor learning and recreation. Whether they’re leading environmental programs, creating meaningful outdoor experiences, collaborating on a research project, or inspiring others to care for our natural spaces — these are the changemakers shaping a more connected Rhode Island. Nominate them today to be recognized at the Environmental Education Awards ceremony in the fall. Deadline for nominations is Tuesday, Aug. 5.
