The River Project is committed to the protection, reclamation, and restoration of the vital ecosystems within the Los Angeles County watershed. Our mission is to create a regenerative, equitable, just, and climate-resilient Los Angeles through radical curiosity, evidence-based watershed planning, and positive action. With our work, we equip local governments and communities with the necessary tools to adapt to rapidly changing conditions and co-create a climate-resilient future.

We advocate for an inclusive, integrated watershed approach to policy, planning, and development at the local, regional, and statewide levels. Through scientific studies, we identify opportunities to restore our river fronts, regenerate surrounding watershed lands, and foster a climate-resilient future for Los Angeles. Additionally, we engage with communities and schools, providing hands-on, project-based learning experiences that empower Angelenos to become watershed stewards.

By facilitating locally-driven public art and partnering with agencies and NGOs, we promote awareness of our local water resources and native ecosystems, while also championing smarter land use policies to catalyze a climate-resilient Los Angeles.
