What is No Child Left Inside℠?

It’s a promise, and a pledge...designed to help today’s children re-connect with the great outdoors, while building the next generation of environmentally conscious citizens.

Promoting the vast natural resources, historical significance and recreational opportunities of Connecticut’s 138 State Parks and Forests, the No Child Left Inside℠ initiative enables the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection to spread a message to families across Connecticut: our state parks, forests and waterways are an invaluable resource to be discovered, treasured and shared.
