ORCA - Organization of Regional Coastal Activists


MISSION STATEMENT

ORCA (Organization of Regional Coastal Activists) is a network of coastal activists that focuses on training coastal activists about the Coastal Act, helps to educate them as to the process to follow development from initial permit application at the local level up to and including the Coastal Commission, and facilitates networking between coastal advocates throughout the State.

ORCA is a resource for environmental advocacy, but it is not an advocacy group with it's own agenda. ORCA is an educational and networking association. It is structured to empower coastal activists and enable them to become effective advocates.

ORCA Membership
