Who We Are The Northeast Florida Regional Council

(NEFRC) unites Baker, Clay, Duval, Flagler, Nassau, Putnam and St. Johns Counties and provides a forum for discussion and implementation of solutions that benefit us all.

In 2014, NEFRC is beginning ACTION on a Regional Action Plan to address sea level rise.

JOIN US!

What We Are Trying To Do Expand awareness of the importance of the Region.

None of our counties, cities or towns can effectively address sea level rise on their own.

Get businesses and residents engaged in deciding what Northeast Florida should do about sea level rise.

Engage 5,000 people in discussion on this topic in 2014. Challenge residents and businesses to learn about the

Region. Join the Regional Resiliency (R2) Challenge. Sea Level Rise Community Meetings in each county can

help you WIN THE R2 CHALLENGE!

What We Need To Do It To help accomplish these goals we need to

raise $5,000 to fund educational initiatives in each of the seven counties in the Region.

This money will also go to developing a clearinghouse website which can be used as a resource on sea level rise scenarios, adaption, and mitigation.

Why We Are The Ones To Do It Northeast Florida communities

are vulnerable to sea level rise. We are REGIONAL. We care about RESILIENCY. We are R2. Are you?
