HOW WE BRING CHANGE
Spring Forward's goal is to promote opportunities for the next generation through education on climate change and climate justice.
We work with schools, camps, and other youth programs to implement fun, interactive lessons in a way that works best for each learning environment and classroom. With access to the right resources, our future leaders will be able to gain the knowledge necessary to improve the state of our world.
Spring Forward has over 25 workshops we offer to schools and youth programs. We believe students learning about climate change in an engaging hands-on manner is essential in preparing them to be conscious global citizens. Being high schoolers teaching youth allows us to connect to the students and have a larger impact on their perceptions around climate change. This also allows us to show students that no matter their age they can be change makers fighting for a better world. Reach out to us if you would like Spring Forward to lead a free climate workshop in your school, class, or youth program!
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Parent
My daughter has been having a great time learning... Very kind, knowledgeable, and creative instructors... For example, my daughter was very interested in environmental issues before but, she has been even more inspired by the class and instructors at the environment/climate change class and she is ready to take more actions. She is planning to talk to the school principal to start the climate change club at her school. I want you to know that you are making great impacts on the lives of children. Thank you!!!
Students

I liked the class. It had some things I already knew but a lot I did not know. Thank you for making the class!
