Michigan River Alliance

             Creating a Unified Voice for Michigan's Rivers

Supporting community-based efforts by facilitating communication and cooperation among organized groups is the key to protecting and restoring rivers. The Alliance believes that support services and programs to achieve these goals are best delivered on a regional, watershed basis.

Ultimately, services can be delivered more effectively because rivers are inherently geographic features, particularly characterized by local land and water use and management. Delivering needed programs and services on a regional level allows the Alliance to focus its resources on the issues that are specific to a region, river or locale.
