Service Learning In the Northwest RegionThe Northwest Sampler
Several service learning programs in the five Northwest states of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington are described on the following pages. These programs are just a few of the many excellent ones found in this region and throughout the country. They are presented here as examples of the possibilities available. The programs vary widely in approach and theme. Some have been in existence for several years, while others are fledgling efforts. All, however, share the common goal of connecting students with the community around them in meaningful ways and helping them experience the benefits associated with such a connection. Included for each site is location and contact information, observed outcomes as a result of the service learning, a description of the program, and tips from these educators for other educators looking to implement service projects in their schools.
