Many ways to engage
Integrated floodplain management is a systems based approach, at the heart of which is the idea that the most complex problems are solved by helping people work together. The FbD network brings together floodplain managers, Tribal leaders, habitat biologists, farmers, project managers, funding agencies, elected officials and concerned citizens that want their communities and ecosystems to be safer, healthier, and more resilient. Explore the different ways to engage below.

“The key to success has been the broad collaboration of the partnerships that have been forged and trust that has developed during this process. The number and scale of acquisitions already secured to effectuate meaningful opportunities for flood hazard reduction, floodplain reconnection, and farms preservation warrants continued investment into this program.”
