Advance MyRWA's mission to protect and restore the Mystic River Watershed and connect people to the Mystic. We need your enthusiasm and expertise!
MyRWA's volunteer policy team meets together on the first Tuesday of each month from 7-8 pm.
Through the policy committee, you can advocate for responsible development and for protection of the natural resources of our watershed. Members of the committee learn together and from each other about the environmental, scientific, political and engineering issues that impact the river. Members draft letters to endorse or oppose legislation or in response to environmental permits and development proposals, testify at public hearings and more. Have a specific issue you want to advocate for or against? Bring it to our attention, we're a passionate and committed group! Newcomers are welcome to join.
