Cathy Justis

Cathy Justis is the Director of Education for the Wolf River Conservancy in Memphis, Tennessee. With an emphasis on water education, she provides a wide range of programming for K-12 students and others, including frog chorus walks, stream strolls, and service projects. Her activities are designed to provide Memphis and Shelby County youth with a greater appreciation of the natural environment, especially a better understanding of the 
source of clean drinking water. She frequently is invited by local educators to participate directly in the classroom teaching of environmental education. Complementing her direct involvement with children, Justis also is certified to teach “Project WET” workshops, designed to provide educators at all levels with information on diverse water topics so that they can reach children with objective, science-based water education. Over the last few years, Cathy has reached hundreds of educators with Project WET.
