Programs are designed to raise awareness of the coast's immense value as a natural, cultural, historical, and recreational resource. Going Coastal, Inc. is a 501c3 all-volunteer, youth and community serving nonprofit organization addressing where water meets the land. Our programs connect communities to water access, preserve maritime heritage, tackle coastal resilience, protect wetland habitats and water quality, explore the intersection of culture, arts and the environment. Projects are designed to raise awareness of the immense value of the shore environment, encourage a sense of community and common history and promote preservation, protection and conservation. Our goal is to encourage more people, young and old and of all abilities get on the water, help keep it clean, and educate people about its ecology and history. Through the efforts of our volunteers and information initiatives, we encourage adults and children to appreciate, enjoy, and preserve it.
