2020 California Invasive Species Action Week: Saturday, June 6-Sunday, June 14, 2020 The 7th annual California Invasive Species Action Week will be held June 6 through June 14, 2020. The goals of California Invasive Species Action Week (CISAW) are to increase public awareness of invasive species issues and promote public participation in the fight against California's invasive species and their impacts on our natural resources. Check the 2020 Schedule of Events to fine an event near you. CISAW Youth Art Contest: Help the California Invasive Species Program by creating your "Be a Habitat Hero" art work. Send them your illustrations showing what you could do to stop the spread of invasive species! For more information about the Youth Art Contest, check out the CDFW's Youth Art Contest page. Help us make Californians aware of how to become a Habitat Hero. Your artwork might be an identification guide, an illustration of nutria’s biology or impacts, a public service announcement, or a graphic showing how you would search for nutria. Be creative!
