Mission
Catalyze, align and leverage efforts to create a healthy river system and thriving communities with meaningful connections to rivers and streams in the Willamette Basin.
Values
Basinwide and community-grounded
We co-create, share leadership, and focus on the power of the collective over the interests of the individual, as well as helping communities and ecosystems across the entire Willamette River Basin thrive.
Reciprocity
We build respectful relationships that sustain us; we seek and respect interconnections. We are accountable; centered on justice, equity and inclusion of different individuals and communities; and build our capacity to care for the river and each other.
Health + healing of people, communities and the river
We bring visibility to communities traditionally overlooked, recognize trauma, and support the building of resilience and healthy ecosystems.
Sharing and leveraging resources
We listen, seek and readily share knowledge, funding and expertise; and we seed creative ideas.
Equity
We are centered on equity; we facilitate access, opportunity and resources for communities and groups that have traditionally been prevented from participation.
