Space Coast Partnership
About
Formed in 2012, the goal of the Space Coast Shorebird Partnership is to conserve shorebird and seabird populations in Brevard county through collaborative efforts between government agencies, non-government organizations, and individuals.
Get Involved
Our needs are seasonal based but the peak of activity occurs during the breeding season. Here are a few ways to get involved:
- Attend partnership meetings in the spring and fall
- Join Space Coast Audubon
- Become a Rooftop Steward
- Become a Beach-nesting Bird Monitor
- If you hook a bird, don’t cut the line! Reel. Remove. Release.
- Report any wildlife violations to the FWC Wildlife Alert or call the Hotline 888-404-FWCC (3922)
