The Ontario's Invading Species Awareness Program is dedicated to combating the threats posed by invasive species in the province. They offer a wide range of programs and resources to educate the public and facilitate early detection initiatives for various invasive species. From terrestrial plants like Common Buckthorn and Dog-Strangling Vine to aquatic plants like Water Hyacinth and Water Soldier, the program covers a diverse array of invaders. They also focus on forest pests like Emerald Ash Borer and invertebrates including Asian Clam and Zebra Mussels. With initiatives like the Wild Pig Surveillance Program and the Mysterysnail Management and Removal Project, the program actively engages volunteers in monitoring and removing invasive species.

Their efforts extend to educational resources, such as the Virtual Classroom and webinars for teachers and students, as well as reporting tools like EDDMapS Ontario for the public to report sightings. By partnering with organizations and volunteers, the program aims to protect Ontario's ecosystems from the harmful impacts of invasive species.
