Voices of Impact: Trinity River Crew Testimonials

  • "Trinity River Crew has impacted me more than I imagined. I joined not knowing much about conservation or the efforts people make to try and preserve the earth we have left. TRC provided me with first hand experience as to how important our environment really is."

  • "Programs like this are important because they get to show young people why conservation is important. It gives them a hands-on experience with other newcomers to learn and find out if they like this path."

    Nathan, 2023 Cohort Student

  • "I have been looking into different colleges to study the environmental field. I couldn't have done so without the help of the leadership at Trinity River Crew."
