Local action to restore and protect streams and wetlands is crucial for the Bay's recovery. The latest Chesapeake Bay Agreement, known as Chesapeake 2000, calls upon community organizations, local governments, businesses, and individuals to step to the plate and get involved. In its mission to mobilize decision-makers and stakeholders to learn about these challenges and participate in resolving them, the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay offers a variety of programs and tools for learning how different stakeholders can help restore the Bay.

Training Modules & Workshops
Educating the 15 million people who now reside in the Chesapeake Bay watershed about Bay-friendly lifestyles is a tall order. That’s why the Alliance partners with local watershed organizations, business associations, civic groups, and schools to offer training modules and workshops that teach non-technical audiences how to better treat our land and water resources for the ultimate protection of the Chesapeake Bay.

Toolkits & Guidebooks
The Alliance translates technical or complex information on watershed issues into easy-to-understand toolkits and guidebooks for lay audiences. These products range from “do-it-yourself” guides to publications that provide general advice and direction in working with professionals from various fields of expertise.
