What we do
Advocate
Advocating for policies at the local, state and federal levels, and connecting with communities to help them adapt to a changing world.
Build
In partnership with restaurants and our legion of volunteers, we collect, cure and bag oyster shell before using it to build oyster reefs. Since starting the program in 2014, we have recycled more than 17 million pounds of shell.
Restore
CRCL’s Native Plants Program leads our efforts to restore Louisiana’s coastal habitats by engaging volunteers and stakeholders to be a part of the solution.
Connect
The State of the Coast Conference is the largest statewide conference of its kind, providing an interdisciplinary forum to exchange timely and relevant information on the dynamic conditions of coastal communities, environment and economy.
Educate
CRCL developed the Future Coastal Leaders initiative to engage the next generation of coastal advocates.
CRCL’s Coastal Leadership Institute is a professional training and education program that is comprised of eight monthly experiences in locations across Louisiana’s coastal zone.
