The ACK Deer Management Project is seeking volunteers to help launch seven new working groups aimed at tackling Nantucket’s growing deer problem, from food insecurity to public safety.

At a public meeting Thursday, organizers said they are moving from research into action, forming teams to handle everything from outreach to deer-carcass cleanup as part of a coordinated effort to increase the amount of deer harvested by hunters. The group, now a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, has spent the past year building partnerships with groups like the Land Bank and Nourish Nantucket.
