Stewardship and Education

One of the most important parts of the Bay restoration effort is public engagement. Each one of us must know and care about the problems facing the Bay if they are to be solved. Bay Program partners are working to teach all residents about the Bay and its rivers through formal and informal education opportunities, such as outreach, public access and various watershed management programs.

Citizen & Community Action

Bay Program partners provide leadership education and technical assistance to businesses, developers, local governments, private land owners and other stakeholder groups to help promote restoration commitments.
Public Access

Public Access

Public access points are places anyone can visit to swim, hike, paddle or simply enjoy the Chesapeake. Providing access to natural areas helps the public build a connection with rivers, wetlands and the Bay.
Communications & Outreach

Communications & Outreach

Public awareness is a vital key to Bay restoration. The Bay Program uses public outreach to encourage citizens and community groups to make Bay-friendly choices and participate in restoration activities.
