Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powers Organization

The mission of the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powers Organization (VRWJPO) is to collaboratively provide education, science, and support to restore and protect the Vermillion River Watershed’s natural resources for all who live, work, and play within its boundaries.
The Vermillion River Watershed is on the homelands of the Dakota Wahpekute people. We pay our respects to elders past, present, and emerging.
