About The Urban Conservancy

The Urban Conservancy is a non-profit organization leading and collaborating to strengthen our urban environment and local economy through equitable practices, policies and programs since 2001. We engage in hands-on programming to alleviate neighborhood flooding, create green sector job opportunities, and educate our community on the benefits of green infrastructure through our Front Yard Initiative and our summer camp for children, Building Active Stewardship in New Orleans (BASIN). We take a holistic approach to building a strong local ecosystem through advocacy and hands-on water focused education for the green sector leaders of tomorrow. The Urban Conservancy also works to support local small business development through our StayLocal initiative. Through our work across many audiences, from homeowners to contractors, youth to independent business owners we are creating strong partnerships and facilitating much needed communication. The Urban Conservancy creates, educates, and advocates so that residents of New Orleans are engaged and take informed action for a more resilient home for everyone.
