The University of Alabama is partnering with the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs to update the Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (“SCORP”) and needs your input! The SCORP is an important document that guides our state’s investment of funds in outdoor recreation infrastructure, assists recreation planners and providers in making informed decisions about infrastructure improvements, and helps coordinate the efforts of multiple organizations to more effectively meet the outdoor recreation needs of Alabamians.

Thrive Regional Partnership is honored to receive a Catalyst Fund grant from the Network for Landscape Conservation to support the partnership framework Natural Treasures Alliance. This opportunity will enable Thrive’s Natural Treasures Alliance to promote enduring, place-based, collaborative conservation efforts that protect the ecological, cultural, and community health of our storied landscape.
