Transformation of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Region

Bridget Brown is the Chief Operations and Programs Officer for the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence (GLSL) Cities Initiative. The region spans 8 U.S. states and 2 Canadian provinces, and is home to more than 45M people and 3,500 species of plants and animals. Its rivers and lakes hold a fifth of the world's fresh water. Our region is an economic powerhouse. Though we face challenges, opportunities for a healthy future abound. Bridget highlights key times in history that have shaped the region and shows how the Initiative is working to protect, improve, and leverage our lakes and rivers for a thriving environment and economy.
Donavan and Mary Beth Lane are our program sponsors.
