Conservation and Environmental Justice

The San Gabriel Valley has a number of natural resources that have been neglected. With this in mind, Active San Gabriel Valley is working with local and national partners in protecting our mountains, rivers, and open spaces. Along with our advocacy for better infrastructure to support active transportation, we also aim to protect our natural resources such as the San Gabriel Mountains, San Gabriel and Rio Hondo Rivers. These spaces provide many recreational opportunities for our communities that are currently lacking in many parts of the San Gabriel Valley.

ActiveSGV is a part of the Nature For All coalition and our mission is to permanently protect the San Gabriel Mountains by building support for protection of, and increased access to, our forests, rivers and parks; and develop a new, diverse generation of environmental stewards to care for our public lands.

Nature For All

Nature For All is a diverse partnership of residents, cities, local business owners, faith and community leaders, health and environmental justice organizations, and recreation and conservation groups working to permanently protect the San Gabriel Mountains and rivers. 

For over a decade, Nature For All has worked in local communities to build support for protection of, and increased access to, our forests, rivers and parks, and develop a new, diverse generation of environmental stewards to care for our public lands. 

​Years of extensive community involvement, including public meetings, thousands of public comments, letters, and postcards have helped shape the coalition’s vision for the future of the San Gabriel Mountains and rivers.
