Bay Area Youth Environmental Coalition

Hi All!
I am curious on what each of these organizations are about in this coalition, and have a tool here to help define some leverage points for collaborations.

The Urban Alliance for Sustainability is building a relationship database for the Sustainability Movement and we'd like your input and to add your organization to this data base.

The purpose of the project is to effectively suggest partnerships in the movement so we can all better meet our missions, so that the movement can better utilize the resources at its disposal.

More information is on our website at: www.uas.coop/mem
and plenty of ways to collaborate with this template UAS has come up with at: http://www.uas.coop/collaborationtemp

The results of this project will be made available to the public later this Spring. Beyond that, UAS will dedicate resources to maintaining this database and communicating the results to the appropriate people, and lending this to this coalition. This is not going to be a static resource page, but a dynamic center for collaboration.

So, please take 5-10 minutes and share with us information about your organization below, this will also help the other groups here have a better idea of what you do and how we can all collaborate more together.

Thank you for your time and all that you do!
