Grant Overview

Ohio faces significant environmental challenges, with 43% of its waterways impaired and 25% of its land dedicated to agricultural production. The state's environmental landscape is further complicated by its mix of urban and rural areas, with 75% of the population residing in metropolitan areas. In Ohio, environmental education is critical to fostering a sense of responsibility among youth. Unlike Michigan, Ohio's environmental education initiatives focus on local ecosystems and conservation efforts. The state's 55 local health departments play a crucial role in environmental health, with 40% reporting environmental health concerns. This grant will support environmental education programs for students in grades K-12, with a focus on hands-on experiences and community projects. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, schools, and local government agencies with a proven track record in environmental education. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate an understanding of Ohio's environmental challenges and a plan to engage youth in conservation efforts. The grant will prioritize programs that focus on local ecosystems, such as the Lake Erie watershed, and that incorporate hands-on learning experiences. Successful applicants will be required to track and report on program participation, youth engagement, and conservation outcomes. Ohio's Environmental Education Council will provide technical assistance and support to grantees. The initiative aims to cultivate a sense of environmental responsibility among Ohio's youth, measuring success through increased youth-led conservation initiatives and improved environmental knowledge. With 1,800 schools across the state, Ohio has a significant opportunity to integrate environmental education into its curriculum. Key metrics will include the number of students served, program participation rates, and conservation outcomes. ## Environmental Education in Ohio's Schools ## Ohio's Environmental Challenges and Opportunities ## Supporting Youth-Led Conservation in Ohio
