This program will provide unique learning experiences for underprivileged youth that currently reside in an immensely disadvantaged socioeconomic populace.
The curriculum will encompass workshops, field trips, and hands-on training in ecological and archeological research within an interdisciplinary approach combining science, literacy and math.
