CAPE PERPETUA
COLLABORATIVE
What we do
Cape Perpetua exemplifies the land-sea connection—a unique place where land and sea intersect to produce productive coastal rainforests and ocean upwelling that fuels a productive food web. The Cape Perpetua area is located in the central coastal region of Oregon. Working together and coordinating conservation efforts in this region will help make Oregonians aware of, appreciate, understand and support the natural and cultural values of this region.
Mission
We cultivate collaboration across communities, disciplines, and generations to inspire care, understanding, and action in alignment with the ecosystems and cultures of Cape Perpetua, from the land to the sea.
