Katie Leung, Riverkeeper’s Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator

Did you know that fish use the Hudson River to migrate? Katie Leung from the Riverkeeper will talk about a seasonal movement many of us never see. We’ll also learn about the River’s iconic fish species and the threats they face from habitat degradation and overfishing. Katie will also introduce us to the work the Riverkeeper does to preserve the health of the Hudson.

Katie is Riverkeeper's Senior Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator. Before that, she was a field technician with NYC Parks’ Wildlife Unit. She is constantly learning that all environmental and conservation issues are interconnected. She works to involve people in environmental stewardship, to counter the threats facing our natural world
