They do this by fostering education, community involvement, stewardship, and advocacy in collaboration with organizations such as ours. They are committed to fostering opportunities to use our canyons as \u201cNature Classrooms\u201d where San Diego\u2019s youth can learn about our unique wildlife and ecosystems with hands-on experiences.<\/p>\n The AGGCC is examining how members of our community can participate in the work of this organization relative to Navajo Canyon. Once we have a clear picture of this involvement we will reach out to you by way of our Newsletter, this monthly article, and our email contact list.
