Native Fish Society is a small environmental organization focused on protecting and restoring wild, native fish and the habitats that sustain them. Guided by science, it advocates for the recovery of native fish populations and the stewardship of watersheds, aiming for abundant fish, healthy rivers, and thriving Northwest communities. The organization emphasizes three pillars: abundant wild native fish, healthy free-flowing rivers, and climate-resilient fisheries that rely on data and traditional knowledge in decision-making. Based in Oregon City, Oregon, it serves policymakers, watershed groups, and communities across the Pacific Northwest. In March 2020, Native Fish Society partnered with Umpqua Watersheds, Inc. and the Center for Biological Diversity on a petition to list Oregon's Spring Chinook under the Endangered Species Act. It operates with a small team and pursues collaborative efforts to influence policy and habitat restoration.
