 “It is absolutely the best magazine on Sustainability and Service-Learning I have seen. I have learned so much from them and I use the ideas when doing presentations. The ideas are fresh and trendy for education.”
Peter DiMaio, Spanish Instructor
Octorara Area Middle School
Atglen, PA
“In recent seminars for education and environment funders on community and place based education, I have highlighted Community Works Journal as one of the best articulations of the work in this new field.
The synthesis of arts, environment, literature and cultural heritage work in the Journal reaches out to all segments of rural and urban communities.”
David Sobel,
Director of Teacher Certification
Antioch New England Graduate School
