MISSION
Sustainable Design Academy (SDA) nurtures healthy, equitable, and inspired youth leadership to advance community well-being through collaborative action. Founded in 2018 we provide a safe, academically rigorous, and stimulating school environment for urban minority students, grounded in the principles of Sustainable Design Methodology.
SDA fosters "Green Minds" and "Eco-Conscious Leaders" through a stakeholder focused curriculum and year-long collaboration projects. Our youth leader's build financial literacy in cryptocurrency, green design, fabrication, visual communication, and systems thinking.
We invite you to join our community of youth mentors & designers committed to environmental stewardship.
