The Connecticut River Conservancy is a regional nonprofit in the environmental services field that has worked since 1952 to protect the Connecticut River watershed from its source to its outlet. Based in Greenfield, Massachusetts, it collaborates with partners across four states to advocate for river health and engage communities. The organization focuses on preventing pollution, improving habitat, and expanding opportunities for people to enjoy the river and its tributaries. It frames its mission around the idea that healthy rivers support healthy economies. Its activities target watershed communities, local stakeholders, and partner organizations seeking information, advocacy, and practical solutions for water quality and habitat protection. In 2024 CRC introduced the EnviroScape Watershed/Nonpoint Source Model, a loanable educational tool for classrooms across the Connecticut River watershed in Vermont and New Hampshire to illustrate watershed processes.
