About this organization
Mission
We are the voice for the Connecticut River watershed, from source to sea. We collaborate with partners across four states to protect and advocate for your rivers and educate and engage communities. We bring people together to prevent pollution, improve habitat, and promote enjoyment of your river and its tributary streams. Healthy rivers support healthy economies.
About
Supported by over 1,059 members, the Connecticut River Watershed Council, Inc. conducts education, outreach, volunteer, and advocacy work to protect and enhance the 4-state 11,000 square mile watershed which begins at the Canadian border and ends at the Long Island Sound. Four river stewards as well as education and outreach staff work directly with public officials, citizens, and school children to implement the mission of the organization. The council conducts restoration projects, an annual watershed-wide clean-up day, and advocates for strong water quality standards and responsible development. The council was responsible for the creation of the Silvio Conte National Wildlife Refuge and the designation of the Connecticut River as a national blueway as well as the nation's first national blueway in 2012.
