Welcome to Inland Empire Waterkeeper!
Inland Empire Waterkeeper is a grassroots, non-profit water quality organization with a mission to enhance and protect the quality of the waterways within the Upper Santa Ana River Watershed. This is accomplished through five program tenets: advocacy, education, research, restoration, and enforcement. Established in 2005, Inland Empire Waterkeeper is a chapter of Orange County Coastkeeper, which oversees the Orange County portion of the watershed, and is a separately licensed member of the international Waterkeeper Alliance.
Inland Empire Waterkeeper's vision is to achieve a sustainable watershed free of pollution and a community of motivated water stewards to ensure swimmable, drinkable, fishable waters within the Upper Santa Ana River Watershed.
Homelessness and Water Regional Work Conference
This conference is the culmination of the work put forth and connections made at our last two symposia. At this conference, we will hear from those leading the strategic work to end homelessness from San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange Counties. We will collaborate to bring a cohesive plan to end homelessness in this region. Join us as we work together to protect the Santa Ana River Watershed waterways.
January 17, 2019 - 9AM-4PM - San Bernardino
