Two out of three attend free or subsidized

Through scholarships and our Green Access program, 66% of workshop participants attend at no or reduced cost. That is the mission working: education reaching the communities that have historically had the least access to it.

At Neighborhood STAT in Castle Hill alone, we reached around 3,000 community members with 150 volunteers on site.
