Grant Overview

Wyoming's youth outdoor education programs face unique operational challenges due to the state's vast rural landscape and limited infrastructure. With 90% of Wyoming's land area classified as rural, outdoor education programs must navigate significant logistical hurdles to reach students. Wyoming's national parks, including Yellowstone and Grand Teton, offer unparalleled outdoor education opportunities, but require careful planning and coordination to leverage these resources effectively. To succeed, Wyoming's outdoor education programs must demonstrate operational capacity to manage remote programming, partner with local schools, and incorporate environmental conservation and STEM education. Eligible applicants include Wyoming-based nonprofit organizations, schools, and government agencies. Wyoming's operational landscape is distinct from neighboring Colorado, with a greater emphasis on frontier county designation and extreme rural delivery capacity. Wyoming's Youth Outdoor Education Landscape: The state's outdoor education programs serve a diverse range of students, from rural communities to Native American reservations. Funding will prioritize initiatives that demonstrate operational capacity to reach these diverse populations. Key operational challenges include limited access to transportation, with 45% of Wyoming's rural roads classified as unpaved. Wyoming's Outdoor Education Infrastructure: Funding will support initiatives that enhance outdoor education infrastructure, including equipment, facilities, and technology. Effective outdoor education programs in Wyoming must balance hands-on learning experiences with careful risk management. Managing Risk in Wyoming's Outdoor Education Programs: Applicants must demonstrate capacity to manage risk in remote outdoor education settings, including emergency response planning and participant safety protocols. Wyoming's Environmental Conservation Focus: Funding will prioritize initiatives that incorporate environmental conservation and STEM education, aligning with the state's natural resource management priorities.
