Sea Grant Constituent Engagement Survey
Introduction

 

The Sea Grant mission is to understand and predict changes in the Earth’s environment and conserve and manage 
coastal and marine resources to meet our nation’s economic, social and environmental needs. To improve the quality of 
Sea Grant’s engagement with the public we invite you to complete this survey based on your experiences with Sea Grant 
during the past two years. During this time period, Sea Grant has operated under the following four mission goal areas: 
ecosystems, climate, weather and water, and commerce and transportation. Individual survey responses will be compiled 
in a summary of aggregated results and will be used to help Sea Grant improve its engagement with you. The survey 
should take no more than 15 minutes to complete.
