Over 12,300 Minnesota youth were served in 2014, including 52% from minority backgrounds and 279 children with learning or other disabilities.Canoemobile is the national expansion of the UWCA program bringing environmental literacy to urban youth living in metropolitan areas such as Chicago, Philadelphia, DC and NYC. In each city, Wilderness Inquiry works with dozens of partners to conduct 1-2 weeks of programming with students on local waterways such as the Ohio, Anastocia and Harlem Rivers. In 2014, Canoemobile traveled to 24 cities, instructed over 9,329 youth, including 58% from minority backgrounds and many with disabilities.Number of People Served: 21,631 Number of Service Days: 11,693 Number of Events: 260"
