The Choctawhatchee Riverkeeper mission is to protect and restore the ecological health of the Choctawhatchee River, its tributaries and the surrounding terrestrial systems that constitute the watershed. Our organization and its members accomplish the mission independently and in cooperation with individuals, institutions, organizations and agencies using a watershed approach to guarantee clean water, healthy aquatic ecosystems, and public access to and enjoyment of the recreational and aesthetic values of the river.
