vision

MissionGulf Restoration Network is committed to uniting and empowering people to protect and restore the natural resources of the Gulf Region.

The Gulf of Mexico will continue to be a natural, economic and recreational resource that is central to the culture and heritage of five states and several nations. The people of the region will be stewards of this vital but imperiled treasure, and assume the responsibility of returning the Gulf to its former splendor.

2015 was a significant year for the Gulf - we marked 5 years since the BP Disaster and commemorated 10 years since Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. It was a year of standing together to call for true and lasting recovery of our Gulf and our communities. There is still so much work to do, but, as

always, we will continue fighting for our waters, wetlands and communities.Cynthia Ramseur, Board Member
