Webinar Description:
One of the challenges that communities face when addressing water quality, flooding and/or other climate change impacts is identifying funding mechanisms to support their projects. There are several funding programs available in Massachusetts for this work, but it is often difficult to identify which projects are the best fit for each, navigate the grant requirements, and craft a competitive proposal.
This webinar will highlight key state, regional, and federal funding opportunities for water quality and climate resilience projects. Each federal, regional and state funding sources will provide a brief presentation and will be available for questions following the presentation in zoom breakout rooms.
