Texas Children in Nature Network Summit 2024

Welcome to the 2024 Texas Children in Nature Network Summit held in Waco, Texas!

After registering for the Summit and making your Wednesday Workshop selection, you will be enrolled in your selected workshop by TCiNN staff. You will see your workshop on your schedule after you have been enrolled.

You do not need to select and add your workshop to your schedule.
All workshops are "frozen" and only staff can manage enrollment.
If you do not see a workshop option on the registration form that is listed on the workshop PDF, that means it is full and no longer available.

Regular registration ends November 30.

Late registration begins December 1.

Once late registration begins, any cancellations will not be refunded.

Thank you for registering for the 2024 Summit!

About me

As NWF's Coordinator for the Houston region, I manage the various grant programs active in the area (Monarch Heroes, Outdoor Learning Cohort, & Resilience in Schools & Communities) and prioritize building and strengthening relationships with local partners as well as K-12 schools. My efforts focus on our programs' ability to mirror the diversity of Houston and impact climate justice and equity for the community by creating native greenspace and encouraging outdoor engagement from teachers and students on school campuses. I have enjoyed 10+ years working in informal science education and conservation. Prior to joining NWF in 2022, I worked in the Zoo and Aquarium field connecting communities with animals and inspiring action to save wildlife.

Talk to me about outdoor learning, nature play, and opportunities to connect with formal educators!
