Join us for a daylong symposium in Corpus Christi on rebuilding the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Harvey.

Republish

The Texas Tribune hosted a symposium on rebuilding the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Harvey. During this daylong event in Corpus Christi, we explored the storm's effects on the state budget and 86th Legislative Session; the impact on public education in the region; the business climate and economic development along the coast; whether the population in the affected areas will return and what will be different; and the environmental effect of the devastating storm. Also on the agenda: a one-on-one conversation with John Sharp, the Texas A&M University System chancellor leading the effort to rebuild Texas.

Wait! We need your help.

More than 2 million people read Texas Tribune articles every month, but only 12,000 of those readers also donate to support the news they count on. Not even 1% of readers! If you are one of the 99% of Texas Tribune readers who hasn’t made a donation before in support of independent Texas news, you can change that today. A small donation makes a big impact.

Our Spring Member Drive is an important time to help our newsroom plan for what resources will be available for them to tackle longer investigations and bigger projects later this year. Texas Tribune journalists need the support of readers to write the articles, take the photographs and create the data visualizations that impact Texans and Texas policy.

We have a goal to have 500 readers become Texas Tribune members during our Spring Member Drive. As the Tribune member community grows, the journalism you read here is better protected. Will you make a donation today to show your support of independent Texas news?
