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 National Marine Sanctuary. CWCs 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 Californias Central Coast. Today, CWC is using this expertise to revitalize the San Lorenzo River. CWC works to transform the lower San Lorenzo River into a community destination by inspiring people to explore, enhance and protect it.
