These components enhance the capacity of governmental and community-based organizations involved in restoration and stewardship of the Great Lakes ecosystem.

    NCSCE is a national organization that supports a community of teachers and learners. Through professional development programs, research, and mentoring we help educators in and outside the classroom make connections between the content they teach and real-world issues of civic importance. By putting content into context, what is inaccessible becomes accessible, what is uninteresting becomes interesting, and what is not meaningful becomes meaningful.  We empower learners by showing them that their knowledge matters, and what they learn today can help solve some of the biggest problems of tomorrow.
