News Release-
On July 1, Hiwassee River Watershed Coalition — a 25-year-old organization with a strong presence in North Georgia and Western North Carolina’s western-most counties — merged with MountainTrue to establish MountainTrue’s new Western Regional Office. The merger allows us to continue HRWC’s existing programs and to build one organization that can effectively advance the interests of our mountain region.
MountainTrue champions resilient forests, clean waters, and healthy communities in Western North Carolina and the Hiwassee watershed in North Georgia. We are committed to keeping our mountain region a beautiful place to live, work and play. Our members protect our forests, clean up our rivers, plan vibrant and livable communities, and advocate for a sound and sustainable future.
