Coastal Watershed Council

The Coastal Watershed Council (CWC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was formed in 1995 in response to the declining health of watersheds connected to the Monterey Bay. CWC's mission is to preserve and protect coastal watersheds through stewardship, education and monitoring. Over the past 20+ years, CWC has educated thousands of students and trained thousands of volunteers to protect the natural resources along California's Central Coast. CWC's technical experts follow state and federal protocols to generate scientifically valid data that inform key decision-makers. CWC's history has positioned us as well-respected experts in watershed protection and river restoration. Today, we are using this expertise to revitalize the San Lorenzo River.
