This program is part one of a more in-depth study of the Newtown Creek and available for local schools in school districts 14, 16, 24, 30, and 32. This pre-field trip presentation will give students the base knowledge they need to fully understand the state of the Newtown Creek and the work of Newtown Creek Alliance.
The Newtown Creek Alliance is a community-based organization dedicated to restoring, revealing and revitalizing Newtown Creek.
We work to restore community health, water quality, habitat, access, and vibrant commerce along Newtown Creek. Since 2002, the Alliance has served as a catalyst for effective community action.
Newtown Creek Alliance is dedicated to providing engaging local-ecologically centered educational experiences for all ages. Through our multi-modal, hands on activities and workshops we bring the Creek into the classroom and the classroom out to the Creek.
