Mission or Purpose
The Darby Creek Valley Association (DCVA) is an all volunteer, nonprofit organization dedicated to the protection and enhancement of all the Darby Creek watershed's resources, including water, wildlife, historical sites, and the floodplain. The Darby Creek watershed encompasses three counties in southeastern Pennsylvania (Montgomery, Delaware and Philadelphia) and eventually flows into the Delaware River at Tinicum, PA. Our primary mission is public education. DCVA is a well-established organization with over 100 members, a board, several working committees, an annual conference, an annual stream clean up, educational programs, and partnerships with historical sites in the watershed.
