Save the Dunes is a proud governing member of the Healing Our Waters-Great Lakes Coalition (HOW), a group of organizations dedicated to securing a sustainable Great Lakes restoration plan and the federal funding to implement it.

Each year in March, more than 100 Great Lakes advocates typically head to Washington, D.C. to elevate the Healing Our Waters Great Lakes Coalition policy priorities, and to tell the story of restoration success, drinking water investment need, and the importance of conservation action. Due to Covid19, this year will be a bit different. Instead of traveling to D.C., we are going virtual, so now you can participate from the comfort of your own home!

Save the Dunes is assembling a team of advocates from our region to help message on HOW's policy priorities, including funding the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, the Drinking Water and Clean Water State Revolving Funds, and enacting policies to stop Asian Carp from invading the Great Lakes. We are seeking applicants who have a connection to the Great Lakes to join our team and participate in zoom meetings with Indiana’s
Congressional delegation from March 1st through March 5th.

If you are interested in joining our team, please fill out the following questions. We will follow up with you soon with more details.

Please note that there are a limited number of spaces on the team. If you are not selected to participate this year, we will add you to our list of candidates for future trips. Attendance of the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative Advocacy Training does not guarantee you a spot on the team.
