Huron Stewardship Council
Goderich, Ontario
The Huron Stewardship Council has been active in the Huron County community since 1995, originally beginning as a Provincial program, and officially becoming incorporated as a not-for-profit in 2011. We encourage responsible ecosystem level management of our natural resources, through collaboration with the Huron County community. Our ultimate goal is to create a healthy natural landscape that is valued by the community, managed sustainably by landowners, and used in a way that balances multiple benefits for the community.
Rare Charitable Research Reserve
Cambridge, ON
The rare reserve has several ongoing conservation and research projects, including Vegetation Sampling Protocols (VSP), invasive plant management, native plant propagation, salamander and insect monitoring, and the turtle nursery project. We strive for a healthy, positive, and effective workplace in an environment that fosters independence, creativity, and flexibility.
Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre
Selwyn, ON
Our mission is to Protect and Conserve Ontario’s Native Turtles and their Habitat… We accomplish this by operating a turtle hospital that treats, rehabilitates, and releases injured turtles, by performing extensive research in the field to further conservation initiatives, and by running a comprehensive education and outreach program.
Scales Nature Park
Oro-Medonte, Ontario
Scales Nature Park focuses on the conservation of reptiles, amphibians, and fish through education, research, and conservation activities
Stage 3: Outreach, Service and Community Impact Development
In this stage, CCC participants will be able to take what they’ve learned in the first two stages and incorporate that knowledge into meaningful community outreach and impactful service projects. From developing pollinator education programs for the classroom to hosting informative podcasts that expose new audiences to discussions on the top environmental issues of the day, these projects are developed and delivered by CCC participants with the goal of having a positive impact on both their home communities and Canada. Explore every completed CCC project here to see the impact our program is having across Canada and to get inspiration for how you can better your community and local wildlife.
