Youth Leadership Programs

About TEAM

Teen Environmental Action Mentorship (TEAM) is a year-round, paid environmental education internship and leadership program for Bay Area high school youth. 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 one-on-one mentorships with our professional educators and by leading interactive activities with our elementary school participants.

TEAM members

Members come from throughout the Bay Area and have diverse backgrounds and different stages of leadership and teaching experience. All TEAM participants share a passion for their environment and the desire to take their leadership skills to the next level. TEAM provides a unique opportunity to learn about neighboring communities and 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
