Nonprofit Organization Management - Takoma Park, Maryland, United States
We are a non-profit organization whose mission is "to support professionals who study, protect and manage North America's rivers." We do so by developing and hosting workshops and open information-sharing events that enable anyone who works on, around or in service to rivers to learn and meet experts and enthusiasts. Our roots are in the former Interagency Whitewater Committee (est. 1972) and the 1996 merger of the American River Management Society (est. 1988) and River Federation (est. 1985). RMS advances the profession of river management by providing a unique variety of forums for sharing information about the appropriate use and management of river resources. RMS continues to build its base of expertise in all aspects of river management and stewardship including an ecosystem approach to recreation, water quality, riparian health, and watershed management. Besides creating multiple opportunities each year for river professionals to learn, train and network, RMS is growing partnerships that will help river professionals serve both our river resources and the people who use and enjoy them.We are the home of the River Training Center, National Rivers Project and River Studies and Leadership Certificate and support Wild and Scenic Rivers with online and in-person workshops to help folks understand how to better support rivers that are federally protected. Dedicated to holistic river management, our diverse membership includes river rangers and planners who work for regional, state and federal agencies; faculty and students, scientists, river conservation professionals and rafting and angling outfitters and enthusiasts. #RiverMgtSociety #TheRiverIsMyOffice #RiverManagement
