Advocacy
Standing up for the health of our lakes
Since our inception in 2009, an important part of our work has been advocating for lake-related legislation in Augusta. In 2023, we helped co-found the Lake Protection Coalition, a collection of organizations, supported by individuals and businesses, who are uniting to advance innovative, effective, science-based policy change, including long-term funding for sustaining healthy lakes in Maine.
Protecting our lakes takes all of us—speaking up today to support bills that safeguard them for the future.
