Parents and Citizens

Parents and citizens have a vital role in advancing sustainability at the school and community levels. Creative Change offers programs for community education settings and resources for parents or citizens advocating for sustainability education in schools.

Community education

Communities across the country are embracing sustainability initiatives ranging from local food to energy efficiency. Our programs offer curricula and instructional resources aimed at adult learners, and can be used in informal settings such as discussio groups or programs organized by libraries or faith-based groups. Learn more about programs for adult learners.

Advocacy for Sustainability Education

What's in your curriculum?

More and more schools are realizing that sustainability education is not another trend, but an overall approach to developing caring, knowledgeable and engaged citizens. Does your school get it?

Our site offers a solid overview of sustainability education and what it looks like in curriculum as well as whole-school change. Share our site with the teachers and administrators in your community.
