This is a school year program with monthly and/or bimonthly meetings that will be organized during times the majority of the STCAA students are available. Likely meeting times will be after school, evenings and weekends. Some of the meetings will be in-person and some will be on Zoom so we can engage a broader range of mentors. Students will learn about the issues facing sea turtles and their habitats, select an issue to address, design a project and make a request for change with the goal of improving sea turtle survival and habitat quality.
