At its core, the Redd Fish Restoration initiative focuses on restoring and protecting vital salmon habitats, recognizing the critical role these iconic fish play in maintaining the health of marine and freshwater ecosystems along the West Coast. By restoring spawning grounds, improving water quality, and implementing sustainable fishing practices, this initiative aims to safeguard not only salmon populations but also the countless other species that rely on healthy oceans and rivers for their survival.
