Youth Leadership Programs

About TEAM

Teen Environmental Action Mentorship (TEAM) is a paid environmental education internship and leadership program for San Francisco and Marin high school students. Through TEAM, participants discover their inner strength as leaders, their ability to positively influence others, and the importance of diversity, community, and hands-on learning. TEAM interns gain first-hand knowledge about the field of environmental education through field trips, one-on-one mentorships with our professional educators, and by leading interactive activities with our elementary school participants.

TEAM members

Interns come from San Francisco and Marin counties with different levels of leadership and teaching experiences. All TEAM participants share an interest in their environment, a willingness to try something new and the desire to continue to grow as leaders. TEAM provides a unique opportunity to learn about neighboring communities and to collaborate with a diverse group of peers. 

"I learned that I've got leadership skills and I didn't even know I had them.  I'm more confident, too."  —TEAM Intern 2006-2007
