The Coastal Vitality Project

Amid the continuing impact from the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill, Greater New Orleans, Inc. (GNO, Inc.) and Chevron are providing critical support to southeast Louisiana’s coastal communities by spearheading the GNO, Inc.-Chevron Coastal Vitality Project (CVP), a new initiative designed to identify short-term needs and long-term impacts among businesses impacted by the oil spill, and then tailor solutions to assess the economic damage, support regional workforce development, catalyze small business capacity, and assist in marketing the Louisiana brand.

This app is designed to assist individuals and businesses affected by the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Disaster as well as non-profit organizations and government agents working in the region. It includes resources about the claims process, commercial fishing and seafood safety as well as parish-specific information with locations of non-profits providing technical assistance, social service offices and economic development opportunities.
