Youth Engagement
Each spring, the City leads environmental work days with local junior high students. City staff and leaders work with the students in Coralville parks and teach them about the benefits of trees, native plants, and environmental cleanup. Often, these environmental work days are hosted in Brownfield zones; students receive fact sheets about Coralville Brownfields and the EPA Brownfields Program, learn what brownfield sites mean, and discover how potential brownfield sites could be identified.
