The American Shore and Beach Preservation Association (ASBPA) is happy to support the U.S. Coastal Research Program collect stakeholder needs and priorities in preparation for events in 2024. The U.S. Coastal Research Program (USCRP) is a multi-agency led effort to coordinate Federal activities, strengthen academic programs, and address coastal community needs by identifying coastal research priorities, enhancing funding for coastal academic programs, fostering collaboration, and promoting science translation. Past USCRP opportunities have funded university researchers across the U.S. to tackle coastal science and engineering questions in a variety of environments along all of the nation’s coastlines. The goal of the USCRP is to build a community of practice to address societal needs along the coast.
