Rock Creek Conservancy is a nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to Rock Creek and its parklands. The creek spans about 33 miles through the Washington metropolitan area, crossing federal lands and multiple jurisdictions, and development nearby threatens its health and beauty. The group pursues its mission through education and advocacy, building partnerships with government agencies, nonprofit groups, community organizations, and residents to preserve Rock Creek for current and future generations. Based in Bethesda, Maryland, it operates as a 501(c)(3) organization and files IRS Form 990 annually.

Its primary audience includes local residents and institutions that value urban nature, seeking collaborative conservation and educational initiatives to address environmental threats and sustain park resources. In keeping with its partnership approach, the Conservancy has worked with entities such as Peirce Mill, Inc. and Howard University students in 2021 to research the history surrounding the Peirce Mill tea house.
