Youth Science Institute is a nonprofit organization that partners with nature to teach science to more than 30,000 students from preschool through eighth grade each year. Founded in 1953, the organization aims to spark curiosity, develop critical thinking, and foster a lifelong connection to the natural world for personal health and earth stewardship. Based in Los Gatos, California, it operates Science & Nature Centers at Alum Rock Park in San Jose, Sanborn County Park in Saratoga, and Vasona Lake County Park in Los Gatos, offering school programs, community activities, summer camps, and family events. 
 
 The nonprofit serves schools and communities in Silicon Valley and the Peninsula, providing hands-on, nature-based science experiences to supplement formal education. With a mid-sized regional footprint, it maintains a staff that supports its programs through in-person learning and community engagement. The organization also offers seasonal employment for individuals with science backgrounds and experience working with children.
