Can I submit a project for consideration?
LCRA primarily works with its wholesale power and water customers to identify service projects. Priority is given to projects in our customers’ communities, and LCRA accepts applications for Steps Forward projects from city officials within those municipalities.

Steps Forward Day 2025 will be April 11. The deadline to submit project applications is Nov. 22, 2024.

What makes a suitable Steps Forward project?
Safety is a foundational value at LCRA and is a key consideration when selecting Steps Forward service projects.

A typical Steps Forward project will accommodate a team of volunteers who can work together to complete a task in a day. Suitable projects include painting park buildings, concession stands and athletic field bleachers, improving landscaping, picking up litter, planting trees, repairing fences, and improving playgrounds with paint and new mulch.

How are projects chosen?
LCRA reviews each project application and assigns a team lead and safety representative to visit the work site to discuss the project’s scope, needed equipment and safety issues. After our internal volunteer signup period ends, we will notify applicants if their project is formally accepted as part of Steps Forward Day.
