Mission Statement
: The mission of the Austin Children in Nature Collaborative (CINCA) is to ignite and fan the flames of the regional movement to reconnect kids to the wonder and joy of the natural world. The Children in Nature Collaborative of Austin is a private/public partnership non-profit organization dedicated to creating social change so that kids throughout Central Texas have easy and frequent connections to our natural world. CINCA collaborates with parents, educators, health professionals, developers and parks and environmental education groups to create remedies for “Nature Deficit Disorder” – a term coined by author Richard Louv in his book “Last Child in the Woods, Saving our Children from Nature Deficit Disorder”.
