We want environmental action that's led by us and for us! Girl Plus Environment is one of eight Gulf South community-based organizations chosen to receive funding that will support the implementation of local disaster preparedness programs in states surrounding the Gulf of Mexico. The success of the program depends on how well the community is engaged, not just in the initial stages, but in the decision-making and implementation stages. We’re counting on you to bet on yourself, and join us in protecting Gulf South communities!
