Protecting Our Coastline
Community Conversation: Bonnie Mitchell, Coastal Education Coordinator, North Carolina Coastal Federation
Since 1982, the North Carolina Coastal Federation has been in the field restoring miles of coastline; training and educating students, adults, and communities to take actions that result in cleaner coastal waters and advocating for an accessible, healthy, productive coast.
Created to give a united voice to the need for long-term coastal management, the Federation remains a collaborative, grassroots organization at its heart and brings together traditional and nontraditional organizations, government agencies, and businesses in order to achieve what is best for the North Carolina coast and to leave a legacy of clean water for future generations.

The Federation has 16,000 supporters and reaches almost 300,000 people directly each year.
To talk about the important work of the Federation we were pleased to chat with Bonnie Mitchell, Coastal Education Coordinator.
