Land Acknowledgement

SYRCL works throughout the Yuba River watershed on the Ancestral and Traditional Homelands of the Nisenan Tribe, and includes shared boundaries with the Mountain Maidu, Konkow, and Washoe peoples. These nations have lived here for millennia and live here still.

We acknowledge and mourn the painful history of genocide and the devastation of lands and waters irreversibly altered. We are grateful for opportunities to partner with the tribes to create a shared vision and rebalance our relationship to this place.

SYRCL's Vision

SYRCL envisions a future in which the Yuba River watershed thrives and is resilient in the face of climate change. We envision a free-flowing and healthy Yuba that supports wildlife and people—from the ridges to the canyons and the summit to the sea. SYRCL envisions continued education and engagement for a sustainable water future celebrating the Yuba River’s diverse cultural history. We are committed to promoting the connection between a healthy watershed and human quality of life. SYRCL envisions continued leadership as a vibrant, science-based organization that serves as a model for environmental stewardship and restoration. We inspire activism in the Yuba River watershed and beyond.
