non-formal educators of K-12 students grounded in well-defined beliefs
that are reflected in the curriculum and training techniques
a Curriculum--
of activities developed,
field-tested, and reviewed by over 600 educators and resource managers
working with 34,000 students nationwide and correlated to the
current Georgia Performance Standards (printable Word docs)
