December 2021.
We’ve updated our Newsletter! In addition to being more concise, our new format will now include regular updates from the SNEP Network and the SNEP Watershed Implementation Grants (SWIG) program so that you’ll have access to updates from all aspects of our Program in one place.
If you’re worried about missing our articles, don’t be! We’ll still write articles, just not as often.
That said, if you have an idea for a future article, please email our SNEP Communications Coordinator. In the interim, be sure to check out our article archive on the SNEP website.
We hope you enjoy this new format!
