The New England Environmental Education Alliance

The mission of the New England Environmental Education Alliance (NEEEA) is to promote quality environmental education across New England in partnership with the state environmental education organizations.

NEEEA members include all state organizations in the six New England states. Visit the Member States page for more information. NEEEA is affiliated with the North American Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE).

What does NEEEA do for you?

The six New England state EE organizations support the work of the NEEEA board by hosting the conference, which is the primary means by which NEEEA raises funds every year. The money raised by the conference covers the basic costs of running the organization.  The many hours put in by board members are all volunteer. The board strives to be supportive to the state running the conference, providing the basic framework, while also working on region-wide projects and capacity building. In return, environmental educators throughout New England benefit from the following NEEEA activities:

• A yearly conference.  The 2009 NEEEA Conference will be held in Connecticut on September 25-27 at the Incarnation Center in Ivoryton, CT.  The theme will be "An Arena of Issues and Solutions For A Changing World."
• Recognition of outstanding educators through annual awards
• A bi-annual State Organization Leaders’ Retreat
• A bi-annual Administrators’ retreat
• NAAEE representation for New England
• The electronic publication of the New England Journal of Environmental Education
• A website and email listserv that serves the New England EE community
• Networking and information sharing between the organizations in the region and state boards
• Conference scholarships
