Description
Summary:A statewide environmental education (EE) grants program operated in Florida from 1990 to 2003. Interviews of grant recipients were undertaken to explore and describe the contributions of these funded projects to EE in the state. This report of the descriptive review presents and summarizes findings from these interviews. Grant funds increased the diversity of EE programs available to citizens, increased the diversity of agencies and organizations engaged in providing EE programs, and enabled those already involved in EE to undertake more extensive projects. This article describes the process of the review and suggests recommendations that may help strengthen other grant-funded programs.
