Our Mission
We are a national network of ocean lovers – a free-to-join coalition of the willing - dedicated to preventing the exploitation, destruction, and neglect of our ocean, coasts, and Great Lakes.

Who We Are
We are change makers guided by the principle that we are stronger and more influential together. By collaborating as an inclusive and vocal ocean community, we ensure that conservation policies in the United States are informed by and reflective of the people, regions, and wildlife that they are designed to serve – you.

All too often when it comes to building meaningful relationships with members of Congress and other decision makers, people feel lost and do not know where to begin. It is our job to work with our members in realizing their conservation goals and serve as their guide along the path toward achieving them.
Come join our community of grassroots groups. If you’re interested in participating in meetings on Capitol Hill, we’re here to help. Join us to sharpen your advocacy skills by attending our biannual ocean and coastal advocacy trainings. Connect with us and our supportive community of conservation champions to gain a deeper understanding of policy issues, how to influence them, and beyond.

We welcome you to join us on our mission to safeguard our blue planet.
