Valley Forward Association brings business and civic leaders together to convene thoughtful public dialogue on regional issues and to promote cooperative efforts to improve the environment and livability of Valley communities.

Our metropolitan region will be among the best places in America to live, work, learn and recreate. Valley Forward will dedicate its resources to enhancing our Valley communities.

Valley Forward is proud to steward Canalscape! This important initiative presents a significant opportunity to boldly shape our built environment. Canalscape uniquely intersperses urban vitality into our majestic landscape, offering an alternative to sprawl, quality places to gather, beautiful and comfortable recreational corridors, alternative transportation routes throughout the region (walking or biking instead of driving), and homegrown non-polluting energy for local use.
