Kickstart to CCARP Training for Long Island Municipalities

Join us August 17 at the NYSDEC Division of Marine Resources for a FREE training for municipalities starting out or working towards adapting to climate impacts!

Through this training, attendees will:

• Gain an Understanding of the CCARP process

• Build skills for successful teamwork and plan development

Municipalities are encouraged (but not required) to bring a team of 2-5 representatives, including municipal staff, environmental or citizens advisory committee members, and/or Climate Smart Communities task force members.
