Congratulations to DEM's 2024 RIsing Environmental Leaders, who recently completed their summer internship program! In the program's final week, students presented their research on topics they explored with DEM throughout their 12-week internship and attended an ice cream social with last year's cohort of Rising Environmental Leaders. They spent a day at the Rhode Island State House hearing from various speakers, including a legislative panel, and Governor Dan McKee’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Christopher Abhumline. In the final weekly field trip, students spent the day with staff from DEM's Office of Water Resources clamming and learning about shellfishing in Rhode Island. This year's cohort and their families attended a final graduation ceremony led by DEM Director Terry Gray and Chief of Staff Amanda Cantrell to celebrate their achievement. DEM thanks the partners who supported this summer's program, including Skills for Rhode Island's Future's Prepare RI initiative and the staff from #TeamDEM who played a crucial role in supporting field trips, job shadowing, and serving as guest speakers.

This was the last week for our summer interns from Skills for Rhode Island's Future for @TheEmpowermentFactory. I was a sad to see them leave, and glad that they got to be a part of the amazing summer we had. Together we offered 400 youth an opportunity to go on a feild trip to Slater Mill, and learn how Rhode Island was the birthplace for the American Indusrial Revolution. We offered 22 Art in the Park events in Providence, Pawtucket and Central Falls, for families. We had 7 online Nature Drawing programs that are 6 weeks long meeting once a week. Our teaching interns got to work with children along side our teachers, learn how to make a their own lesson plan which they presented to us on Thursday. The video intern presented their final videos and the graphic design intern shared the work they created including art pieces that will be featured on our Baldwin Loop Walking Path. Thank you to Leadership Rhode Island for your Gallop Strenghts worshop helping us all learn how to lean into our strenghts. Thank you to Nina Pande for being a leader that is making a difference in the lives of many. You are helping us build a better world. #empowerment #community
