The Invasive Species Interest Group (ISIG) consists of individuals from across the United States, that are interested in sharing and communicating with others in their field of invasive species and information management. Now consisting of over 100 members, the ISIG includes representatives from private, non-profit, and educational organizations, state and federal government, and non-government agencies.

If you would like to join the ISIG, please contact:
Annie Simpson (+1-703-648-4281, asimpson@usgs.gov) or Elizabeth Sellers (+1-703-648-4385, esellers@usgs.gov).

Facilitators:
