Earth Force

Earth Force is a national non profit with over 30 years of experience partnering with school districts, youth-serving organizations, and educators to evolve student learning through Environmental Applied Civics (EAC). Our expertise is in the elements that make authentic civic engagement work: centering youth voice, building strong youth-adult partnerships, and creating resilient communities.

Youth civic engagement is declining  just as our environmental challenges demand more collaborative solutions. Many communities struggle to provide the tools and space students need to be involved in decision-making. 

Earth Force fills that gap. 

We created Environmental Applied Civics (EAC), an educational approach where youth partner with adults to identify a local environmental issue and work with community members to change  policies or practices. Over 30 years, we have supported more than 220 organizations in integrating authentic EAC learning to enact deep systemic change.
