About People For Puget Sound


People For Puget Sound is a non-profit citizens’ group working to protect and restore the health of Puget Sound and the Northwest Straits through education and action. Our vision is a clean and healthy Sound, teeming with fish and wildlife, cared for by people who live here.

Puget Sound is home to thousands of species of plants and animals. Its scenic beauty is unparalleled and its health is key to our region's vitality.

But Puget Sound is in trouble. Many marine plants and animals are struggling to survive, and some face possible extinction due to pollution, the loss of healthy habitat, and the ever-present threat of an oil spill.

It’s not too late to save Puget Sound


People For Puget Sound is a growing organization with activities, events, and projects in virtually all parts of Puget Sound and the Northwest Straits. Beginning in 2004, People For Puget Sound focused all efforts on saving 2,000 miles of Puget Sound’s shorelines in 10 years.

Our work ranges from hands-in-the-mud habitat restoration, to advocacy for the Sound at all levels of government. Our programs are based on strategic partnerships and collaborations, scientific credibility, creative use of communications and technology, and a hands-on style.

We invite you to join People For Puget Sound. With your help we can save the Sound.
