#TSNwebcast | “Stewardship Starts with Community”

with guest Rebecca Stanfield McCown (YMCA Alliance of Northern New England) What valuable lessons can nature’s caretakers at all levels learn about effective community engagement from groups like the National Park Service, the Council on Environmental Quality, and nonprofits like the YMCA? Join us for this episode as Rebecca Stanfield McCown draws upon her experiences from public lands, federal policy, and place‑based community organizations to share strategies that move beyond outreach to build trust, relevance, and long‑term relationships. Together, we’ll examine how listening to community needs, working through trusted partners, and creating meaningful pathways for participation can strengthen conservation and stewardship efforts in the places people care about most.
