 Children in Nature Collaborative
In April 2006 Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods, called for a nationwide campaign to “Leave No Child Inside” and a movement to reconnect children with nature. There are now campaigns in over forty regions of the United States. The Bay Area “Leave No Child Inside” campaign started in California in September 2006.
The Children in Nature Collaborative was initiated in 2007 with the goal of engaging individuals and organizations from all sectors in this issue. The Collaborative is made up of regional and national partners — teachers, parents, farmers, health professionals, environmentalists, businesses, faith-based groups and community leaders.
Sharing Nature Foundation
Sharing Nature is dedicated to helping people of all ages experience their oneness and harmony with all Life.
Established in 1979 by naturalist and author, Joseph Cornell, the Sharing Nature Foundation uses creative nature activities to give people joyful and inspiring experiences of nature. We believe it's only by uplifting people's consciousness that we truly change their way of looking at, and relating to the world around them. To do this we use Flow Learning™, a playful and inspirational teaching strategy that works with people where they are and gently brings them to a deeper, more profound experience of nature. "Doc" Barbara Joyce Frank, Ph.D.
