We envision the Anacostia River and its watershed renewed, its water quality restored, its wildlife and natural habitats revitalized, and its ecology made resilient to a changing climate.
We envision a healthy freshwater ecosystem in the heart of the DC metro region, nurtured by current and future generations of watershed stewards, where the economic, social, and spiritual benefits it provides are equitably enjoyed by all who live here.
We envision the Anacostia watershed as an inspiring model of urban river conservation and management.
A River Renewed
Strategic Plan 2024-2028
We believe that every stream and wetland in the watershed has its own intrinsic value, and that a river can only be as healthy as the waters that flow into it.
