The Coalition for the Poudre River Watershed (CPRW) plays a unique role as a community-based watershed group. We convene stakeholders around common water and forest issues, share information, coordinate projects, educate residents, and promote stewardship of the Cache la Poudre River Watershed for current and future generations. All of this work requires a community of active and engaged citizens - join us in our mission!
