SWEP works with local and regional organizations as a voice for place-based service-learning throughout the Lake Tahoe Basin. SWEP has worked with the Lake Tahoe Environmental Education Coalition to develop and disseminate the Teach Tahoe Curriculum. We publish a newsletter about every quarter. We participate in Tahoe Truckee Earth Day and South Tahoe Earth Day, Tahoe Forest Stewardship Day, Truckee River Day, and other public events.
