The Adirondack Climate Outreach and Resilience Network (ACORN) will hold a listening session at the Whallonsburg Grange to gather information about climate impacts in Lake Champlain communities. Participants will engage in a visioning session to identify solutions and shovel-ready projects with the goal of bringing federal, state, and private funding to the North Country.

Meeting will take place in the Whallonsburg Grange, in Essex, NY. This session will be free and open to the public.

ACORN is holding listening sessions in communities and with different workforce sectors in the 14 counties of Northern NY for the purpose of developing a North Country Rural Resilience Roadmap to guide federal, state, and private funding opportunities. ACORN is a partnership of the Adirondack Research Consortium, The Wild Center, and Paul Smith's College with funding from NYSERDA and the Adirondack Foundation.
