Coastal Resilience and Communities Webinar

Monday, February 8, 2021

Coastal communities in the Chesapeake Bay are increasingly dealing with flooding, erosion, and sea level rise.  How are rural communities along the Bay addressing these challenges? And what tools are available to help them make climate resilient decisions over the short and long term?  During the webinar, funders will learn about programs and resources in Maryland and Virginia to help coastal communities address their vulnerabilities and adapt to climate challenges.
