Program Description

Event Details

Join Jeff Cinciripino, Founder and President of the Scuba Educational Alliance of Connecticut, for an illustrated exploration of the world’s coral reefs. These vibrant ecosystems are essential to ocean health and coastal communities, yet increasingly under threat. Jeff will explain what coral reefs are, the diverse life they support, and the challenges they face, while sharing stunning photographs taken during his dives around the world. Learn why reefs matter and discover practical steps we can take to help protect, preserve, and restore these fragile underwater worlds.

Jeff is an avid scuba diver whose diving has taken him to Indonesia, the Philippines, and throughout the Caribbean. His mission is to foster a new generation of ocean stewards through scuba diving training for young men and women and to create awareness of the need for ocean health and sustainability among the general public.
