Cape Fear Sierra Club Earth Day program.

We all need nature. Getting outdoors improves our mental, physical, and social health.  Because of differing physical abilities, many of us experience barriers to full enjoyment of the beautiful outdoors.  Creating inclusive access to natural spaces while protecting the environment is an important goal.
