Stream Team

Missouri has 110,000 miles of streams that provide recreation, drinking water and serenity for ourselves and our children, but they need your help. Stream Teams are made up of people with an interest in, and passion for, Missouri streams. If you are already a Stream Team, this website will provide alot of information on organizing your Team, participating in a variety of activities, and communicating with other Stream Teams all across the Show-Me state and beyond.

Missouri Confluence Waterkeeper

The Missouri Confluence Waterkeeper is a grassroots, citizen-led conservation organization focused on clean water and dedicated to protecting fishable, swimmable, drinkable water for all Missourians.

As your Waterkeeper, we are out on the rivers monitoring water quality, investigating pollution, working collaboratively to address issues, advocating for compliance with clean water laws, and prosecuting those who willfully violate them. Our goal is to engage, energize, and empower our local community in support of clean water here in Missouri.
