November 2008 Watershed Highlight of the Month

Congratulations to the Sierra Nevada Alliance for completing the Sierra Nevada Watershed Community Directory!

The goal of the Sierra Watersheds Program is to ensure that Sierra watersheds have active, informed efforts to restore and protect their rivers, lakes and streams thereby protecting critical habitats and restoring watershed health. The Sierra Nevada Alliance watershed program works to build the organizational capacity and technical abilities of watershed efforts to achieve maximum watershed protection and restoration. They do this by providing networking, information, fundraising support, trainings, consultation and inspiration.

The new directory includes watershed councils, organizations, coordinated resource management processes, and conservation groups that work to conserve, protect, and restore watershed health in the Sierra Nevada. The Sierra Nevada Alliance prepared this directory to assist watershed groups, agencies and others in locating fellow watershed groups in the Sierra Nevada and learning more about what watershed work is happening in the region. They work to build capacity of conservation organizations in the Sierra and want to keep in touch with each active watershed group in the region.
