Come Learn More About Our Lynchburg Rising Project

On October 1st, come find our booth at Lynchburg’s Get Downtown Festival and learn more about Lynchburg Rising. Through this project, we are  collaborating with 4 Lynchburg neighborhoods that have been historically underserved and are at increased risk of flood impacts. At our booth, we will have resources on flooding impacts and preparation; extreme heat impacts; climate equity and environmental justice; plus coloring pages for kids and free Lynchburg Rising stickers! We hope to see you there!
