Mission: The Young Entomologists' Society, founded as the Teen International Entomology Group in 1965, is the largest youth entomology organization in North America. Our main purposes are to assist young minibeast enthusiasts with their quest for knowledge and resources, assist teachers in improving their knowledge and skills for teaching about minibeasts (macro-invertebrates), and promoting an awareness about the importance of invertebrate animals as pollinators, decomposers, wildlife food, and soil tillers. We do this through traveling outreach programs, periodical publications, internet websites, workshops and seminars, visits to our Minibeast Zooseum and Education Center, and cooperative projects.
