Our Mission

We’re a non-profit amplifying the power of our members’ voices

Flood Defenders’ goal is to make flooding a top priority for elected officials. We do this by: 1) helping our members communicate flood problems to politicians and push for action; 2) providing solutions to elected officials that fix flooding

Guiding Principles

We are respectful but assertive. We hold politicians accountable

Nonpartisan

Flooding is not a partisan issue

Local

Our state government should take the lead in planning, coordinating, and raising funds for smart infrastructure – much like Louisiana has

Responsible

Responsible development is essential to not increase the risk of flooding on neighboring properties

Resourceful

One dollar of flood prevention infrastructure is worth four to seven dollars of repair – and will create thousands of jobs
