With a special focus on program development and sustainability, these practical case studies provide reference points for archaeologists looking to design their own citizen science projects. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these essays, contributors describe initiatives such as the Diver-Archaeological Reconnaissance Cooperative (DivARC), which involves combat veterans in meaningful research missions; Diving With a Purpose, which trains adults and youth in documenting and preserving African slave trade shipwrecks; and classroom education that encourages high school students to develop an interest in the field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs volunteers learn the scope, goals, and outcomes of their research, these studies show, they are empowered to become active participants—and true partners—in scientific inquiry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout the wide range of experiences represented here, the chapter authors discuss challenges they encountered as well as ideas for optimizing future projects and strategies for welcoming diverse communities to this work. Arguing that these initiatives will create space for public engagement in heritage research, management, and preservation, \u003ci\u003eCitizen Science in Maritime Archaeology\u003c\/i\u003e serves as a foundation for discussion of this goal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Della A.
