Urban Creeks Council is a non-profit organization based in the Bay Area, California, dedicated to preserving and restoring urban streams and their riparian habitats. Through their projects and programs, they bring communities together to enhance the aesthetics of urban areas, restore wildlife habitats, and create better living environments. They empower communities to protect and restore their streams by utilizing volunteer efforts to construct and manage native riparian habitats, while also partnering with cities and agencies to responsibly manage natural resources. With a 30-year history rooted in science, Urban Creeks Council transforms neglected waterways into thriving streams. They provide valuable research and on-the-ground fieldwork to help agencies make informed restoration and management decisions. Additionally, through their Restoration Apprenticeship Program, they educate young individuals about restoration, ecological concepts, and technical field techniques, while fostering leadership skills. Urban Creeks Council has successfully pioneered the restoration of natural stream channels in cities, benefiting wildlife habitats, ecosystem function, and human communities.Generated from the website
