Mission

The Chesapeake Stormwater Network was founded on the idea that meaningful partnership, collaboration, and innovation can lead to more sustainable, resilient, and equitable stormwater management. We believe that the strength of any collaborative network lies in the diversity of the people and ideas that give it life, and that meaningful environmental outcomes are only achieved when rooted in equitable and inclusive processes.

CSN is fully committed to ensuring that diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the center of our organizational culture, goals, policies, and program delivery. Successful stormwater management is ultimately about achieving safer, healthier, and more resilient communities. We will strive to empower our staff, board, partners, and network members to engage with and celebrate new perspectives while working to build a broad coalition of trained stormwater management professionals to meet the needs of the diverse communities we serve.
