<span class="e2ma-style">To maintain attraction to and retainment of new and diverse talent in applied STEM careers, youth engagement in natural resources is critical. However, due to limited funding, widespread disconnect to natural systems, and a lack of
effective science communication on behalf of the STEM community, youth engagement in natural resources is dwindling. Cooperative Extension is well positioned to address this challenge. This webinar will explore three very different ways that Extension personnel
have engaged youth in natural resources and speakers will illustrate how to initiate and maintain new youth programming across states.</span></span><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#0C234B;font-weight:normal"><o:p></o:p></span></h2>
