Environmental Educators of North Carolina

Our Mission

EENC’s mission is to build connections, provide professional development, and promote excellence for North Carolina's community of environmental educators. We do this by promoting and facilitating professional development, fostering networking opportunities, and demonstrating high-quality environmental education programs and materials.  EENC strives to be a leader in the field of environmental education within North Carolina, the southeast, and the nation.

EENC envisions a future in which:

• Individuals across all NC communities are empowered by their knowledge, skills, convictions, and abilities to inspire a just and sustainable world. 
• Environmental education's substantial societal value is recognized and invested in widely by policymakers, funders, education institutions, and the general public through our advocacy work.
• EENC is a national model, creating a stronger sense of belonging for educators from all walks of life where varied skills and experiences are celebrated.
