Action Fosters Hope
VISION
SWEP envisions a future in which all students in the Tahoe/Truckee region understand the environment in which they live and are empowered to take action to sustain and protect it in partnership with their community.
SWEP Operates on Washoe Land
We recognize that the land we gather on is the traditional and unceded territory of the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California. Since time immemorial, the Washoe People have been the stewards of the Tahoe Basin, living in harmony with this beautiful land.
We honor their deep connection to the environment and express our gratitude for their ongoing care and preservation of this sacred place. As we move forward, we must learn from their wisdom and practices to better care for and protect the land for future generations.
