Back to the future

Built into our organizational philosophy is the inherently optimistic idea that through certain actions, we can – nay, must – build a better future here in south Louisiana. That means on-the-ground work of various types now, of course, but it also means helping to ensure that people continue to take action into the future. For life in coastal Louisiana to be sustainable, we need sustained coastal restoration, and for that we need sustained leadership. As such, we have developed two programs, Future Coastal Leaders and the Student Ambassador Program. The former, for high schoolage students, is set to begin in January; we are seeking participants, mentors and sponsors. We are accepting applications for the Spring 2021 semester for the Student Ambassador Program, which is for college students.
