Federal Partners
FishAmerica’s partnerships with federal fisheries agencies allow
us to fund beneficial fisheries conservation projects nationwide. Strong
relationships with NOAA’s Community-based Restoration Program and
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife’s Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program
have led to effective partnerships providing millions of dollars to conserve
America’s waters and fisheries.
NOAA Restoration Center
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration’s (NOAA) Restoration
Center is home to NOAA’s Community-based Restoration Program. The
program brings together citizen groups, public and nonprofit organizations,
industry, corporations and businesses, youth conservation corps, students,
landowners, and local government, state and Federal agencies to restore
fishery habitat along the coastal United States. FishAmerica’s
partnership with the NOAA Restoration Center funds marine and anadromous
fish habitat restoration projects which benefit recreationally fished
species around the coastal United States.
