About Home2Headwaters (fiscally sponsored by Rivers for Change)

Home2Headwaters is an educational project to teach Bay Area residents where their drinking water comes from and how they can deepen in relationship to water. Nina walked from Oakland to the headwaters of the Mokelumne River, the river providing drinking water to 1.4 million East Bay residents. Home2Headwaters is creating an educational film documenting the water walk and will bring it into East Bay schools to teach youth where their drinking water comes from. Home2Headwaters partnered with Rivers for Change to write a curriculum and bring it into public Oakland high schools this past year. Once ready, the film will be included in the curriculum. Home2Headwaters increases our ability to cope with changing water resource issues due to climate change and create a sense of belonging for humans within the larger water cycle. The organization emphasizes that the next generation must learn to be water protectors, starting with understanding where their water is sourced from.
