| Publisher Description: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) names "connecting people with nature" as one of its top six priorities in the online Service Employee Pocket Guide (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 2010). The National Conservation Training Center (NCTC) took the initiative to identify issues that impede greater progress in addressing the constraints to connecting children with nature. The Division of Education Outreach (DEO) at NCTC formed a working relation with the Policy Analysis and Science Assistance (PASA) branch of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to conduct a study on these issues. To meet the objectives of the study, a survey of a sample of FWS employees was conducted. This report includes the description of how the survey was developed and administered, how the data were analyzed, and a discussion of the survey results. |
