Good morning,

The Environmental Education of New Mexico (EENM) Leadership Team is delighted to announce the 2021 EENM Fellows! Learn more about the Fellows here.

EENM Fellows will begin the program this week with a retreat to build community and strengthen collaborations for continued implementation of Every Kid, Every Day, Every Way: A multi-year shared vision and strategy to provide daily equitable access to the outdoors and environmental learning for all New Mexico kids.
