Join staff from the Gulf of Maine Research Institute's Impact Division for a day full of hands-on sessions designed to get you ready to collaborate internally and with community partners, and implement learning activities with youth wherever you are in Washington County.

We’ll explore connections to the environment, local industry, community needs, and most importantly, the power of resilience coastal communities embody.

Participants will…

• learn about and experience a variety of Gulf of Maine Research Institute (GMRI) classroom ready resources that are locally relevant to youth in Washington County
• leave with ideas and concrete connections to support local, cross-context, and cross-county collaboration
• build a sense of belonging to a learning community
• leave excited and empowered to try new things and apply lessons learned from the day

This is open to any adults within the many learning pathways for youth (food service, K-12 education, administration, etc) in Washington County.

This is a FREE event, with contact hours and lunch provided. This event is made possible by a collaboration with the Washington County Consortium.
