The mission of Sustainability Ambassadors is to "Empower Youth to Catalyze Community Sustainability."Sustainability Ambassadors support the collaborative actions of multiple stakeholders while engaging youth at the cusp of adulthood in the leadership decisions that affect their future. We pursue our purpose through four integrated strategies; the arms, legs, muscle and sinew that give full range of motion to our role as a backbone organization driving improvements in sustainable community conditions in the Puget Sound region.. ONE: Through our unique, year-round Sustainable Systems College, we train exceptionally motivated youth to be skilled Ambassadors responsible for assessing household behavior, profiling stakeholder actions and documenting positive trends. TWO: Our youth Ambassadors present professional-caliber Sustainability Updates to inform decision makers, community members, parents, teachers and classmates on positive trends. THREE: We facilitate Community Sustainability Summits building capacity across generations and sectors for local problem solving based on shared measurement systems. FOUR: Through our Primary Source Institute and ORCA 1.0 we support educators and their colleagues in local government in using “primary source” local policy frameworks and performance measures as the foundation for project-based learning.
