Read the SWEEP brochure... SWEEP is Vermont State-Wide Environmental Education Programs, a coalition of dozens of individuals and more than 60 organizations promoting environmental education in Vermont. SWEEP's purpose is to foster environmental appreciation and understanding in order to enable Vermonters to make responsible decisions affecting the environment.

Since 1975, SWEEP members have been meeting regularly to exchange information and to coordinate efforts among Vermonters involved and interested in environmental education.

SWEEP is one of the six environmental education organizations that make up the New England Environmental Education Alliance (NEEEA).

SWEEP's Goals A GMC family hike
