Teens Take On Climate supports youth to advance climate justice through experiential learning, employment, and engagement in their communities on Chicago's South and West Sides, which are underserved and overburdened by impacts of climate change. TTOC programs: Raise climate awareness; Work for environmental and climate justice; Accelerate access and success in climate careers and employment; and Expand community climate and engagement opportunities. We make climate personal by connecting teens with opportunities to lead, explore and take climate action based on their own perspectives, interests and ideas. Combining Positive Youth Development and climate education, TTOCs instructors lead hands- on programs at schools and teen-serving organizations on Chicagos South and West sides.
