Mission Statement of the Native Fish Society:
Our Purpose
 The Native Fish Society advocates for the conservation, protection and restoration of native fish populations in the Pacific Northwest. NFS works with public agencies and governments to get native fish conservation policies implemented and to ensure that native fish policies are indeed followed once implemented.
The Native Fish Society is involved in public policy decisions and promotes scientifically-based solutions to fish management problems. We also encourage the involvement at both the administrative and personal levels by the public by educating them about the beauty, mystery and value of native fish and their environment.
Our Mission
- To advocate scientifically sound conservation, protection and recovery actions for native fish and their habitats in the Pacific Northwest
- To monitor and influence public agency management decisions in favor of native fish
- To produce educational materials on native fish conservation through scientific reports, newsletters, action alerts, and the media
