Our Mission
Our mission at Salish Center is to educate people about the fragility of the Salish Sea. We intend through our direct strategic action, to do the work, fund the activities and create the political will to change Salish Sea fishing practices that will help restore and protect the sea creatures living here. Through our work for Salish Sea conservation, we will encourage the viability and expansion of reefnet fishing and all selective and sustainable fishing practices, resulting in strengthening our salmon runs. This in turn will allow the survival of our southern resident orcas along with all interdependent species, with the goal of making the Salish Sea the most sustainable salmon fishing region in the world.

Today We are Encouraging Habitat Restoration and Repopulation of our Beautiful Salish Sea!
It is no secret that the once pristine Salish Sea is struggling—industrial development, environmental pollution, and irresponsible fishing methods have led to loss of habitat for our irreplaceable sea creatures. Our southern resident orcas, the heart and soul of this region, are threatened with starvation and even extinction, and our salmon populations are in critical decline, threatening the future of our salmon fishing industry. But by working together towards the conservation of the Salish Sea through responsible fishing practices, we can change this!
