By conducting public educational presentations, our students develop increased self-esteem, enhanced communication skills, and commitment to the community. Close collaboration with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, USDA, and several governmental agencies within the State of New Mexico, is a valued and essential aspect of the program.
Young people are our resources.
Talking Talons trains youth ages 6 to 17 to become peer educators, teachers and role models in civic and environmental responsibility. We also offer employment of youth in meaningful positions of community leadership. Youth are taught principles of health and concepts of ecology, and have opportunity to internalize the strict code of ethics and high standards at the basis of our corporation. Talking Talons has, for ten years, been continually expanding to meet the developing needs of the community, the school systems, and the younger generation.
