One and a half years ago, Sierra SCENE (Sierra Student Coalition Empowering Nashville Environmentalists) was founded in Nashville to help provide an outlet for high school youth in Nashville, TN and their passion for environmental issues. Since being founded, the Tennessee Youth Environmental Network (Tenn YEN) has been started by Laura Rigell and Alex Durand, two gap year students, in Maryville Tennessee, to help connect high school environmental groups.
