Ohio Nature Education

ONE has two missions: (1) to provide a permanent home for more than 38 non-releasable wild animals that are too sick or injured to go back into the wild; and (2) to incorporate these animals into environmental education programs.

ONE's goal is to instill in its audiences an appreciation of our natural world. Since its founding in May 1997, ONE has conducted more than 2300 programs for more than 100,000 children and adults in 18 Central Ohio counties. ONE now averages more than 300 programs annually on 40 program topics, all of which meet the Academic Content Standards in Science and some of which meet those standards in Social Studies.
