Youth outreach efforts would build upon relationships with local and non-local schools already developed by PRNSA’s “Science at the Seashore” and “Every Kid in the Park” programs. A key stewardship focus for the coordinator would involve developing a revegetation plan for foredune areas at the Abbotts Lagoon Coastal Dune Restoration Project and conducting outplanting with volunteer and possibly contractor efforts.
