Numerous organizations throughout California are working to connect young people to the great outdoors. This study documents how the transportation logistics of outdoor programs can be one of the biggest barriers when it comes to connecting youth to the outdoors. In order to assist these organizations, PG&E provided a grant to the the Great Valley Center to commission a report to help define the current transportation challenges confronted by outdoor youth program and organizations, and explore and compare the current available transportation opportunities. The Stewardship Council played an active role in helping to frame this study and providing insights into the transportation issues confronting youth serving organizations.
