The Contra Costa Resource Conservation District recently formed a Beaver Ad Hoc Committee to educate internal staff interested in beaver education, advocacy, coexistence, restoration, and their role in healthy watersheds!

At this meeting, we will be joined by Heidi Perryman, Ph.D., a child psychologist who became an accidental beaver advocate when beavers moved into her home town in 2006. She then served on a beaver subcommittee to help the city decide how to respond and started the organization “Worth A Dam” to coordinate solutions and educate others about their value in the watershed.

Join us for this special presentation at our upcoming meeting on Wednesday, August 26th from 3:00pm-4:30pm.
