About the Center for Aquatic Sciences

Originally created to run operations of the new New Jersey State Aquarium, the Center for Aquatic Sciences has grown and evolved to meet the needs of our Camden community over the years. Today, the Center delivers innovative, engaging environmental science programming for families, students, teachers, and communities. Our flagship Community And Urban Science Enrichment (CAUSE) Program serves as a regional leader and national benchmark for STEM-based youth development employing a community service, small cohort model. The Center’s fishing and kayaking programs engage 400+ residents per year with Camden parks and green spaces. Through partnerships with schools in Camden and Philadelphia, the Center delivers science enrichment and afterschool programming to thousands of students each year.
