About Cori's ee360 Community Action Project

Together with community organizations, the Siuslaw National Forest is building a community engagement program that aims to provide historically underserved communities access and information to/about public lands. Cori, the Public Affairs Specialist for the Forest, works with long-standing, local, community partners to provide free transportation to public lands with culturally relevant education and gear for participants to facilitate positive, safe experiences on public lands. Cori hopes her participation in the ee360 Fellowship will give her tools to incorporate community perspective into programming and deepen her work in community engagement.
