This project updates the collaborative effort between Texas Sea Grant and a community of Hispanic, underrepresented minority fishermen displaced by regulatory changes in the Gulf of Mexico. The project aimed to empower these fishermen by providing training in oyster aquaculture, ultimately leading to the establishment of a cooperative and the permitting of a 60-acre oyster park in Keller Bay, Texas. All training sessions were conducted entirely in Spanish to ensure maximum accessibility and understanding for the target population. The project engaged aquaculture specialists from across the United States to provide comprehensive, high-quality instruction. The training program fostered community engagement and collaboration, leading to the formation of a cooperative to manage the oyster park and market the harvested product. The cooperative received the necessary permits to operate the 60-acre oyster park, ensuring sustainable and legal aquaculture practices. This highlights the potential of targeted outreach and training programs to support under-represented communities and promote sustainable economic development in coastal regions. By providing the necessary skills and resources, these individuals can transition to new livelihoods and contribute to the revitalization of local economies.
