Join us at events, field trips, and forums across the Sound this October!
Our goal is to bring Long Island Sound communities and partners together at various activities and events throughout the month that will showcase projects across the region that are advancing coastal resilience to encourage knowledge exchange and collaboration. Check out all of the opportunities in October below! More to come!
Long Island Sound Partnership and New York Sea Grant, in partnership with Suffolk and Nassau Soil and Conservation Water Districts, are holding our 3rd Annual Long Island Coastal Resilience Forums in Suffolk County on October 8th and Nassau County on October 9th. These forums will bring together state and local decision makers, municipal staff, and other interested parties working to address flooding, shoreline erosion and other coastal issues. The goal is to share information on best practices, discuss challenges, identify opportunities to increase resilience, and enhance coordination across communities. Each Forum will end in a field trip to explore local resilience projects.
