CCEDC Environment Program staff organize regular environmental educational forums and workshops for community leaders and citizens in Dutchess County on important local issues.  Events are Free and open to the public ~ please contact CCEDC staff if you require special assistance. 

In addition to regularly scheduled forums and workshops, please contact CCEDC Environment Program staff if your municipality needs a specialized environmental training (such as a short talk on septic system maintenance or GIS at a Town Board meeting) ~ educators may be able to schedule a training in your municipality based on staff availability.  We can also loan out an environmental display board and numerous environmental educational materials for municipal or community events.
