The Scallopers Campaign

The Scallopers Campaign sought flexibility, safety, and fairness in the Atlantic sea scallop fishery. They worked with hundreds of scallop vessel owners, their crews, and other supporters to develop science-based, practical solutions to the challenges facing their fishery. Their goal was to work through the New England Fishery Management Council process to develop and implement a leasing program within the Limited Access sea scallop fishery​.

Our work for the Scallopers Campaign began just as their coalition was forming. We assisted the campaign with development of a logo, website and promotional print material. It was important to the leadership of the campaign that they present themselves as a professional, well-organized coalition and all of our efforts have been in support of that goal.
