Parker River Clean Water Association Mission Statement
The mission of the Parker River Clean Water Association is to preserve
and protect the river and its ecosystem through the development of
community
based objectives and coalitions based upon individuals, groups,
businesses,
schools, and governments who understand their connection to the river
and
the watershed and who will act to protect it for future generations.
The Parker River Clean Water Association will strive to
accomplish its
mission by focusing efforts on a series of objectives, including
- public outreach for education, volunteerism and coalition
building
- technical assessment of the river and its ecosystem
- organizational development of a strong watershed group
The Association will develop strong volunteer programs that collect and
disseminate high quality information, develop community and
organizational
leaders, and educate the volunteers and the larger community about the
watershed. We will serve as the central spokesperson for the watershed,
acting as a source of credible scientific, policy and regulatory
information
to help people and organizations make good decisions for the watershed.
Through a committed program of public outreach, volunteerism, and
community
based consensus building, we will strive to be an organization that
knows
and understands its constituents and what they value about the
watershed.
