Much of our work involves creating partnerships among diverse groups and individuals with a stake in the well-being of the river and its watershed. Representatives of 19 neighborhood, civic and other organizations as well as several members-at-large have come together. We consider our many points of view, and work to reach consensus on activities to preserve, improve, and promote the river and its watershed.
