It's that time again! The Water Board has released the next draft of the Bay Delta Plan. If you've followed us for a while, you may remember that SCS and others have many concerns with the Plan, primarily with how inadequate the Voluntary Agreements (VAs) are for protecting water quality.

Despite enormous opposition to the VAs, the Board continues to push for their implementation and continues to exclude Tribes from meaningful engagement. Make your voices known and tell the Water Board that our waterways deserve real protection.

Our voices have made an impact during previous comments! Thanks to Tribal and community advocacy, the Water Board has added Tribal Beneficial Uses to the current draft.

Written comments are due: September 18
Hybrid hearing: October 28-29, 2026

It was an incredible week of learning, connection, and spending time on the land! In Partnership with the Cultural Fire Management Council, we were able to offer a Fire & Water Indigenous Science Camp that brought youth together to explore Indigenous science through hands-on experiences rooted in nature, culture, and community.

Participants expanded their knowledge of local and invasive plants and the landscape around them, explored the relationships between fire and water, and learned what it means to care for and tend the land. They connected with the Klamath River through a rafting trip, snorkelling and swimming, learned about the role and importance of cultural burning, and spent time camping, sharing stories, and learning together in a space that fostered connection, community, and a sense of belonging.

From the river to the fire, every experience offered an opportunity to learn from the land, from one another, and from Indigenous knowledge that has been passed down through generations.

We are grateful for the laughter, curiosity, teamwork, and connections made throughout camp and for the opportunity to support the next generation of Indigenous scientists, land stewards, and knowledge keepers.

We’ll kick off the rally with a press conference featuring tribal leaders, followed by dancers, songs, and community voices as we come together in support of AB 1881, the California Indian Freedom Act.

AB 1881 is about the right to practice our religions, gather traditional medicines, access sacred places, and carry our traditions forward.

🪶 Join us Thursday. Bring your voice. Bring your songs.

We had a great time at the Yurok Tribe's Klamath Salmon Festival last weekend!

Youth, families, elders, and community members participated in several of our table's activities, including Pin the Fins on the Chinook Salmon, Magnetic Salmon Life Cycle, Fish Printing, Spin-to-Win Wheel, and Fishing for Prize Bags.

All of these interactive and tactile activities were appreciated by youth and parents.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at our booth; we can't wait to see you at future events!
