Outreach and Communications Advisory Panel

Members of the Outreach and Communications Advisory Panel provide recommendations to the Council regarding outreach, education, and communications efforts. The AP members are experienced in outreach and communications programs at various state and federal levels as well as members of the media and other private sectors.

The OC AP members include representatives from each of the four state marine resource agencies, the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, and Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Councils, NOAA Fisheries, Sea Grant, non-government organizations (NGOs), and interested individuals experienced in federal fisheries outreach and communications.

The OC AP meets as needed via webinar or in-person.
