There are a growing number of citizens interested in working to address the economic, environmental, and social issues of the Lower Shore. The divided nature and difficult political landscape of the region make creating a large and effective citizen engagement effort difficult to achieve. LESEN serves as a resource for both citizens and organizations seeking to promote more just and sustainable policies and practices.
The Lower Shore should be a place where diverse and engaged communities work towards policies and practices that promote resilient, healthy, and just economies, communities, and environments.
