Miami-Dade County Extension Programming

Miami-Dade County’s population of 2.7 million people results in direct and indirect affects to the marine and coastal resources that border its coast. Ana’s Extension programming is geared towards the individuals that rely upon these resources for their livelihood or recreation. Specifically, Ana works with SCUBA divers, boaters, fisherman, and natural resource managers.Â
Ana’s largest programs include a citizen science program: the Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease Observer program, mangrove trimming education for landscapers and arborists, and the Florida Master Naturalist Program.
