California Central Coast Joint Venture

As a voluntary, cooperative, regional partnership composed of federal, tribal, and state entities working with nonprofit organizations, private industry, land stewards, and academia, the C3JV is delivering conservation through locally-derived approaches to further a vision of the Central Coast as a thriving community where our lands and waters are shared among birds, other wildlife and people in a relationship of mutual wellbeing. 

Partner Category

We work with other federal agencies to help them meet their legal responsibilities as well as their mission.

Friends groups are organizations of community members committed to helping national wildlife refuges and national fish hatcheries meet conservation goals that would otherwise be out of reach.
