Clackamas River Basin Council is a 501(c)3 non-profit with focus on watershed stewardship for the Clackamas. The Clackamas is home to several legacy wild fish whose viability is threatened or endangered, including Coho, Spring and Fall Chinook, and Steelhead along with Bull Trout and Pacific Lamprey. The Clackamas is the source of drinking water for over 300,000 Oregonians -- 10% of our State's population! The Clackamas deserves our protections and stewardship!
We've been a nonprofit in Portland since 1996! Our mission is: to protect and enhance the Columbia Slough and its watershed through community engagement, education, and restoration. We provide over 300 free education programs to Title I schools every year, we plant over 10,000 native plants a year, and we get hundreds of people out on the water in canoes and kayaks for free!
