The Charles River Conservancy (CRC), founded in 2000, is a nonprofit citizens advocacy group dedicated to the renewal and stewardship of the Charles River Parks from Boston Harbor to the Watertown Dam. The CRC works in partnership with the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR), the agency responsible for the Charles River parks, parkways, and historic bridges.  

The Charles River Conservancy promotes the active and innovative use of the 400 acres of urban public parklands along the Charles River from Boston Harbor to the Watertown Dam.  The CRC and its partners—the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and many other community groups—organize volunteers to beautify the Parks and preserve the landscape, advocate for land uses that advance healthy living, public access, and physical parkland improvements, and build awareness about the Charles River.
