We work to ensure the equitable and sustainable management of our most precious resource: water.  Our vision for the future is that Washington State will have clean and abundant waters to support healthy communities, thriving ecosystems, and resilience in the face of climate change.

CELP places tribal treaty rights at the center of our work. We recognize all of Washington’s First People and their ancestral ties to our landscape and waterways and the lives they support.

Clean, Flowing Waters for the West

At this time of year, we give and rededicate ourselves to family, friends, and the values that drive us. We think water should be one of those things. Water is Life. Its importance ties us together and binds us to our environment. But water availability is at the center of the climate crisis, creating a struggle for power and control of our most vital resource and pitting corporate interest against communities and tribal nations. The Center for Environmental Law & Policy ensures that Washington’s water laws and policy provide equitably managed, abundant, clean water for families, farms, and fish. We are the only organization focused solely on water conservation, education, policy development, and ensuring laws are just and enforceable.GivingTuesday is a global movement unleashing the power of radical generosity.
