Why Nature Unplugged?

The average American checks their phone 150 times a day and spends 90% of their time indoors.

Nature Unplugged is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides education and training to promote preventative mental health and inspire wellness in the digital age. Since 2012, we’ve worked to address declining mental health in a digitally saturated, nature-deficient society.

PROVIDING UPSTREAM, PREVENTATIVE SOLUTIONS:

Through years of research and programming, we’ve seen that connecting with nature and building healthier relationships with technology are at the core of the solution.

Nature Unplugged offers a range of services—from guided nature experiences to workshops and educational trainings—designed to reduce the harms of technology overuse while helping people rediscover the mental and physical benefits of time spent in nature.
