How to Become a Volunteer
Riverways works with volunteers throughout the Commonwealth to protect local rivers and streams. Please see our Tools for Volunteers page for more information on the types of projects we offer. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact us.

If you are interested in starting a Stream Team, or if you would like to conduct stream surveys, surveys of dams or culverts, or if you would like to work on non-point source pollution projects, please contact the Adopt-A-Stream Program.
