Founded in 1977 and now one of the oldest state environmental education groups, PAEE continues to change, grow, and learn through the work of its members and leaders.
The Pennsylvania Association of Environmental Educators empowers people to build an environmentally engaged community. We are a pivotal organization in supporting a healthy, vibrant, and resilient PA where all community members live in respect and harmony with the natural world.
Our membership is diverse as the environment in which we live, providing our members with a rich network to share experiences and expertise. It includes educators from nature centers, state agencies, and non-profits, as well as naturalists, school teachers, principals, preschool educators, college professors, authors, industry professionals, students, and retirees.
