Lake Worth Lagoon Initiative (LWLI) is an informal forum for stakeholders to exchange information to increase collective awareness of the health and future of the Lagoon.  A Steering Committee and three Working Groups focused on the topics of Habitat, Water, and Public Outreach meet periodically throughout the year, are open to the public and everyone with an interest in the Lagoon is encouraged to attend.
