Our ocean warriors program has existed for many years and in many forms.
With each new Ocean Warriors program, we strive to provide comprehensive, educational, and inspirational experiences for all of our budding Ocean Warriors.
We measure ourselves and our impact through the feedback we receive from teachers, principals, administrators, and most importantly, Ocean Warriors themselves. Through this feedback we are able to reflect on and update our programs to best reflect our mission and the needs of our communities. Take a look at some facts and figures from our past Ocean Warriors programs: |
