Steps Forward

Steps Forward Day is a way for LCRA to give back to its customers and partner with them on projects that help their communities. During the annual day of service, LCRA employees help complete projects like cleaning parks, improving playgrounds, painting community buildings and athletic field equipment, and improving landscaping with new plants and mulch. Most 2023 Steps Forward Day projects took place on Friday, April 14.

Since we launched the program, hundreds of our employees have worked on about 215 community projects from the Hill Country to the Texas Gulf Coast as part of Steps Forward Day.
