While ECHO got its start in Colorado, we are now creating a national movement to provide equitable, daily access to healthy natural outdoor spaces for all young children in the U.S.
We bring a research-based model of community engagement, landscape design best practices, training and professional development, and advocacy that is tailored to each community, municipality, state, or region. Currently, we are partnering with local leaders to enhance nature-based play and learning in New Mexico, Detroit, Nebraska, and Arizona, and are working to compliment current efforts in Texas and South Carolina.
