DESCRIPTION
The Pulling Together in Restoration Project (PTIR) is a landscape-scale Jobs-in-Restoration program working across multiple jurisdictions in three counties to prevent the spread of invasive species in coastal watersheds. Integrating decades of adaptation, PTIR develops cutting-edge methods for effective and safe containment, responds quickly to emerging or untreated needs, and engages in job creation and community-based education and collaboration to address the challenges of invasive species and their impacts to climate, habitats, natural resource -based industries, salmon recovery, and community resiliency.

Climate resiliency through resilient native plant communities providing ecosystem services for aquatic and upland forests, rivers, salmon, and the web of native biota that continues to evolve in this ecoregion is the PTIR goal into the far future.
