    Naturally Resilient Communities: Rethinking Flood Protection through Nature-based Solutions

    NACo, along with 6 other key partners, have collaborated to develop the Naturally Resilient Communities online guide tool to promote the role that nature-based solutions can play in helping reduce flood risk for communities, while also providing other benefits such as improved water quality, enhanced recreational opportunities and wildlife habitats, and stronger, more resilient local economies. 

    This educational webinar will walk attendees through this online tool and the specific solutions and community case studies it highlights.
