Headwaters Protection Council

The Headwaters Protection Council is a dedicated organization focused on safeguarding the sources of rivers and streams—called headwaters—which are essential for maintaining healthy ecosystems, water quality, and community well-being. They work to promote sustainable land use, educate the public, and advocate for policies that prevent environmental damage to these vital areas. By protecting headwaters, the council helps ensure clean water, supports wildlife habitats, and sustains the natural landscape for future generations. Their efforts are crucial in maintaining the ecological health and resilience of watersheds that communities rely on daily.
