What is the status of California’s beaches? How are they at risk of climate change? What can we do to make them resilient for future generations? Join us for the California Beach Resiliency Plan webinar to learn more!

The California Beach Resiliency Plan is a statewide effort to understand where our beaches are most vulnerable, what solutions may be possible, and how we can take action to protect them.

During the webinar, we will hear from the project leads, OPC and UC Santa Barbara Ocean and Coastal Policy Center, about the Plan’s progress and development, project and timeline updates, and hear feedback about what matters to you and your local beach.
