As a volunteer organization, AFS is its members. We have a small, dedicated staff that offers invaluable assistance in executing AFS programs, but it is the members’ ideas and actions that drive our community’s direction and progress. This column tells a story of how members are once again putting ideas into action on an issue of extreme importance for fisheries conservation.
