Upstream Pittsburgh

UpstreamPgh, formerly the Nine Mile Run Watershed Association, just celebrated 20 years as a 501c3, and15 years since the completion of the Nine Mile Run Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration in Frick Park. Throughout the years the work of Upstream has migrated from Frick Park and into the upper watershed: Upstream. Our tagline is “Healthy Ecology, Healthy Community," and as a group focused on clean water, we are equally focused on people. We strongly believe that humans are a part of nature, and not separate.

Our projects and programs are aimed at reconnecting people to the environment through nature-based solutions like green stormwater infrastructure. We are dedicated to serving those people and communities that are most underserved, and developed a set of Climate Equity Principles to accompany the NMR

Environmental Equity Study which guide us as we work towards climate justice in the Pittsburgh region.

We would like for our staff to reflect the communities that we work within and for that reason, we are encouraging diverse applicants to apply for this position.

UpstreamPgh is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applicants of any actual or perceived race, religion, age, sexual orientation, disability, or any other identifying traits.
