There's been a lot of interest from existing members, potential members, and others for OEN to really dive into our framework for change. Many of you have seen the OEN Tree. This is an opportunity to learn how we go about this work, to help your team better understand how OEN can support their work, and what resources are available through OEN and its members. We encourage you to invite folks outside of your own organization, who you believe would benefit from this conversation.

Please join us next Tuesday, January 28th @ 11am PST/2pm EST , as we welcome Craig Flax from Yoots. Craig founded Yoots in 2017 after talking with a friend about the national Kids in a Park Program, which provides free entry to National Parks for 4th graders. The program's key equality issue is the lack of transportation to parks, keeping tens of thousands of youth from participating in the program each year. Yoots aims to eliminate transportation as a barrier to equity for underserved youth.
This conversation will invite you to discuss and share your program's transportation issues, and learn if Yoots might be an option to help. Craig will also happily share what Yoots is currently working on to help us understand what their work includes.
