Environmental Education Goals of the Howard County Conservation Board
The goal of the Howard County Conservation Board is to encourage awareness and enjoyment of our natural resources by providing a better understanding of our environment. Programs and environmental education assistance are available upon request for schools, youth groups, adults and other special interest group.
Through conservation education, people develop the critical thinking skills they need to understand the complexities of ecological problems.
Conservation Education also encourages people to act on their own to conserve natural resources and use them in a responsible manner by making informed resource decisions. Whether you're new to the field of conservation education, or an old hand -- We can all use opportunities to learn new skills, polish old skills, and expand our network of colleagues and mentors.
