[edit] About WREN

WREN is 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization on a mission to practice and promote land stewardship through education, partnerships, and scientific research.

Local educators identified the need for an environmental education curriculum that took an interdisciplinary approach, provided hands o­n experience, and focused o n the practical efforts of restoration.

As part of the West Eugene Wetlands Partnership, WREN is filling that niche by developing programs and facilitating experiences that educate individuals and increase personal and community awareness of the wetlands. WREN has now reached more than 15,000 participants through school programs and interpretive programs for children and adults in a 30 foot-diameter yurt, WREN's outdoor classroom. For more than a decade, the West Eugene Wetlands Partners have envisioned the West Eugene Wetlands Education Center to house the growing education program.

WREN continues to share its mission through a multi-partner approach that pulls together many public, private, and government entities and community members for the benefit of the community and the protection of the wetlands.
