Increasing Community Engagement
on Contaminated Lands
Chris Shuey, Johnnye Lewis, and
Tommy Rock will be sharing their stories of working directly in the field on
Superfund and other contaminated sites, creating opportunities for community
member engagement and translating complicated issues in such a way that
community members gain knowledge and become empowered. The strategies they
share will help you in developing your own approaches, tailored to your
communities, to enhance the development of not only understanding but also
real-world skills, such as soil and water monitoring.
This TSFWG webinar was presented
by Dr. Johnnye Lewis (UNM
Superfund Research Center), Chris Shuey (Southwest Research and Information
Center), and Tommy Rock (NAU) in November 2017.
