About JRA...
James Riverkeeper Program
The James Riverkeeper is a full-time on-the-water advocate to protect and defend the James River. The goal of the Riverkeeper is to promote advocacy, education, research, communication, cooperation, monitoring and, if necessary, legal actions to protect and preserve the James River and its watershed.
The James Riverkeeper Program was launched in 2001 when JRA joined the Waterkeeper Alliance. The Waterkeeper Alliance is a growing international organization with over 153 local “Riverkeeper”, “Baykeeper”, and “Coastkeeper” programs, all dedicated to protecting local waters from pollution. The idea for this program stemmed from a concept dating back to old England, and was started in America in 1983 with the Hudson Riverkeeper.
