Outreach & Education

Outreach & education is a core element of integrated watershed planning. Educating decision makers, students, teachers, and land owners on watershed resources and issues is critical for promoting understanding and awareness that translates to action. CWSD and the CRC Education Working Group collaborate on educational programs and projects that bring our guiding principles to life. As per the CRC’s Watershed Literacy Action Plan, our action-oriented, hands-on activities engage and connect all residents to our watershed. Long-term, the CRC Education Working Group hopes we can achieve our vision of A Carson River Watershed community that believes their behavior impacts watershed wellness–and applies their knowledge to act in ways that benefit it.
