As watersheds evolve, so does SBUCC!



Let us re-introduce ourselves! SBUCC is now the Santa Barbara Urban Creeks Collective.


As many of you know, the Santa Barbara Urban Creeks Council was formed in the 1990s when a group of local residents grew concerned about threats to the creeks and watersheds of Santa Barbara County, and came together to take action. Our organization is built on their passionate dedication to stewarding, restoring, and advocating for the protection of healthy urban creeks, a purpose that grows ever more relevant in the face of increasing human impacts on ecosystems.


As both watersheds and communities are always evolving, SBUCC has been evolving as well to maintain relevance to community needs. We're increasing our focus on inviting the public to explore and learn about their watersheds, since having more caring eyes and hands on the creeks is vital for their protection. We envision a future in which communities understand, appreciate, and connect with their watersheds; treasuring and protecting them for years to come.


We changed the "Council" in our name to "Collective" to better reflect the open, "grassroots" relationship we aspire to have with fellow stakeholders and community members. As the Santa Barbara Urban Creeks Collective, we want to welcome the perspectives of all members of the community so that we can work together to support safe, healthy watersheds and creeks even better than before!


Everyone lives in a watershed, so everyone is invited to be part of our Collective! Stay tuned for volunteer opportunities and other ways to get involved, or email us at info@sburbancreeks.org.
