C.I.T.E

Communities Investigating Their Environment

CITE is a water quality community science initiative that began in St. John the Baptist Parish, driven by local parish residents. It walks community members through the process of identifying a waterway of concern, deciding on what test is most appropriate, collecting data, and using that data to design an action project using tools and training we provide.
