ADVOCATING FOR
FLORIDA'S SPRINGS

Video provided by David Schrichte

The Florida Springs Council is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization focused on advocacy for
Florida's springs and spring-fed waterways.

Our mission is to build the power, influence, and resources of springs advocates across the state.
We focus on the culture and policy changes that will lead to the protection and restoration of
Florida's springs and waterways.

We are putting those who pollute and abuse our springs on notice. We do whatever is necessary – through Advocacy, Local Governments, the Legislature, and the Courts - to reverse the destruction of Florida’s springs, rivers, and aquifer.

The Springs Summit is a one-day gathering hosted by the Florida Springs Council and Stetson Law.

The Springs Summit brings together springs advocates from across the state to discuss the current state of our springs and the movement to protect them through policy, law, and advocacy.
