NACD September 2020 U&C Webinar – Urban Conservation Outreach

09/17/2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

The Tualatin Soil and Water Conservation District (TSWCD) in Oregon will highlight their urban conservation outreach efforts in the next NACD Urban and Community Conservation webinar, which is scheduled at 12:00noon-1:00pm Eastern time on September 17, 2020.

The Tualatin SWCD will talk about the journey they took from focusing primarily on rural Washington County, passing a tax levy in 2016, and increasing capacity to reach urban residents of Washington County. TSWCD’s Urban Conservation Program leverages various outreach strategies including social media, YouTube how-to videos, in-person and online education events, and many more. The SWCD leverages partnerships with local nonprofits, schools and communities of color to get conservation on the ground. TSWCD enrolls urban residential and community sites into programs that protect local water quality, water quantity and wildlife habitat.

These popular webinars, held on the third Thursday of each month, are sponsored by The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation in partnership with the NACD Urban and Community Resource Policy Group. There is no cost to participate, but space is limited. Registration will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis.
