Sierra Nevada Journeys is a mid-sized nonprofit based in Reno, Nevada, that delivers outdoor, science-based education for youth. The organization offers classroom-based programs, overnight science camps, teacher professional development, and parent engagement activities aimed at developing critical thinking and fostering long-term student achievement while promoting natural resource stewardship. It emphasizes diversity, equity, and inclusion as part of its operating philosophy and designs its programs to encourage active reflection and sustained learning. Its reach spans Northern Nevada and Northern California, serving students and partnering with schools and community organizations to provide hands-on, experiential learning in outdoor settings. The organization has partnered with community groups, including the Boys and Girls Club of Truckee Meadows, to broaden access to outdoor learning. A notable recent development is that in January 2026 the organization received 1,025 acres of protected land from the Feather River Land Trust to expand its outdoor education offerings.
