C A R E :: COMMUNITY ACTION FOR A RENEWED ENVIRONMENT

Because We Care, RDC and CCAM encourage all residents to participate in these five public forums to form partnerships to implement solutions for our community's environment.

The first meeting of St Bernard Parish's EPA C A R E Grant forums is scheduled for February 23, 2008 and will be a whole community workshop on the CARE program and the EPA’s voluntary programs. Participants in this workshop will be asked to identify their chief environmental concerns in the community for future facilitated meetings under the Parish’s CARE program, and to participate in future meetings.

Displays will focus on issues related to the present environment condition of the Parish as well as issues related to rebuilding, such as energy efficiency and green building; and providing information about complimentary state and federal programs, such as the Department of Energy’s rebate program for purchasing energy star appliances.
