We are the Gulf Communities Research Institute We are a research driven non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the health, resilience, and lifeways of coastal peoples. Numerous communities along the coasts of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida are negatively impacted by sea-level rise, land-loss due to erosion, and subsidence, and various economic, social, and infrastructure-related deficiencies. Yet these coastal communities are among the most unique in the United States, providing a significant amount of social capital to America and its peoples. including a broad variety of seafood, music, tourism, shipping-transportation, and petroleum-based industries. |  |
