Environmental Education Grants Program

The Environmental Education Grants Program supports projects that design, demonstrate, and/or disseminate practices, methods, or techniques related to environmental education and teacher training. As required by the National Environmental Education Act, Sec. 6, this grant program provides financial support for environmental education projects that increase public awareness and knowledge about local environmental issues and provide project participants with the skills necessary to make informed decisions and to take responsible actions toward the environment. These grant projects are implemented by schools, universities, state and local government environmental and educational agencies, tribal education agencies, nonprofit 501 (c)(3) organizations, and other eligible entities.
