Give Forests a Hand Leader Guide

Alison Bowers, Janice Easton, Lizzie Peme, and Martha C. Monroe

 

"Give Forests a Hand" is a community service learning program that engages groups of youth in explorations and action projects based on trees and forests. This Leader Guide provides adult leaders and teachers with background and facilitation advice as they help youth identify, plan and conduct an action project. The booklet is 70 pages. In addition to background on each of the eight steps, it includes an activity bank and a list of resources that can be used to assist in an action project. Reflection questions at each step help leaders contemplate what is working and what could be changed to facilitate the process.
