About Healthy
Ecosystems / Healthy Communities!
 The
K-State
Community PRIDE Program has received special funding to help three
PRIDE communities--
Melvern, Greeley, and Rossville--to develop plans for community
improvement and conservation of their natural resources. A
project coordinator from K-State will help each community with the
planning processes.
Knowledge of the
resources in your community is a vital element of the Healthy
Ecosystems-Healthy Communities project. An appraisal of those
resources will help each community balance
 their
use. If a resource, such as water, is disappearing or declining in
quality, then a plan may be needed to determine how that resource can
be sustained or protected. The plans you and your community develop
will assure that the water, soils, plants, and animals in your
community will be there for your children and grandchildren to use
and enjoy!

The Healthy
Ecosystems-Healthy Communities project of the Kansas PRIDE
Program assists communities with a process of civic engagement
and resource planning for positive environmental actions and
benefits to their natural resources. |
Participating communities also receive a $5000 grant to undertake
projects
they identify as important to protect local natural assets and/or
improve the community’s health, economy, and quality of life.
Don’t miss the
opportunity to participate in this process!
