Mission and Program Overview

Mission

To make access to science education in North Carolina equitable, impartial, and widely available, while invoking passion and encouraging a better understanding of how science and nature impact our lives.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Management and launch of the NC Science Trail-In 2022, we began partnering with science education entities across the state to bring awareness to SciEd opportunities for the public. Our new partners included non-profit museums and wildlife centers, the state Aquariums, the state Zoo, and the state Museums, as well as some state parks. All of these ventures provide great science education opportunities for visitors and residents to NC, but it is difficult to find all of the information in one place. Our goal was to partner with these organizations, bring awareness to their programs, and reach out to the public through both in-person and digital means, providing entertaining, intriguing, and educational information that would encourage more science engagement across the state. By December 2022, we had partnered with 63 organizations statewide and planned 17 events with partners for April 2023. We spent most of the fall recruiting partners and building the website required to provide partner information to the public.$10,000$33,609
Adult Education Classes - We taught an "Environmental Microbiology of North Carolina's Natural Places" Course at the NC Arboretum.$475$250
