In this episode of First Things First, we examine the mission and impact of the First Things First Alaska Foundation beyond the recent Mendenhall glacial outburst. We discuss the foundation’s role in advocating for responsible economic development and natural resource management in Southeast Alaska.
We explore pressing issues such as the challenges of Juneau’s infrastructure, the decline of the fishing industry, the impact of mining, and the importance of reliable transportation networks. The discussion also highlights solutions for strengthening the local economy, the ongoing fight against restrictive land-use policies, and the future of resource-based industries in the region.
Tune in to learn how to get involved, stay informed, and make a difference for Juneau and Southeast Alaska. For more information, visit ftfakfoundation.org.
