About

We promote natural, sustainable stormwater management practices and environmental justice in our most vulnerable communities throughout New York City to support the Clean Water Act’s goals of fishable and swimmable waters.

Advocacy

On behalf of our member organizations and the communities they represent, we submit comment letters and testimony, provide advocacy training for local waterbody groups, and engage with agencies to protect and improve clean water resources in NYC.
