2024 RAFT Report
Unveiling the 2024 RAFT Report: Community Science for a Healthier LA River
October 30, 2024
LA Waterkeeper’s River Assessment Fieldwork Team (RAFT) program empowers community members to engage in hands-on ecological analysis of the Los Angeles River watershed. After a pandemic-induced pause, RAFT has evolved into a more inclusive community science initiative, making water monitoring and advocacy accessible to all. This year’s 2024 RAFT Report highlights key findings on water quality, including new testing for forever chemicals (PFAS).
While this report marks the conclusion of the 2024 RAFT season, we’re excited to welcome volunteers back in spring 2025 and continue growing a passionate community of river stewards.
