Species at Risk in Action Education Kit - Watch the Webinar on YouTube!

Are you a teacher? Would you like to learn how to teach your students about local biodiversity? Download Carolinian Canada Coalition's Species at Risk in Action Education Kit. This Kit will:

  • Connect students with their local environment
  • Connect students with the ideas and tools that will allow them to make long-lasting changes in their school, home and community

  • Empower students to care for the vulnerable species in their local area
