Confluence Center of Colorado

Our building stands as a shared home for mission-focused, nonpolitical organizations dedicated to land and water science, education, agriculture, and stewardship. We operate as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Grand Junction, uniting partners who work to protect natural resources and promote education across western river systems and public lands. Inside, we provide working offices, a conference room, and storage for outdoor learning supplies, creating a collaborative environment for our resident groups. We also house the STREAM Preschool and Childcare Center, an employer-based program focusing on Science, Technology, Rivers, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics. This early childhood education initiative supports economic growth and accessibility for local families while introducing young learners to the region’s natural resources. Situated adjacent to the Colorado and Gunnison Rivers, our space serves as a regional hub for conservation, restoration, and sustainable agriculture. We believe that by bringing these disciplines under one roof, we magnify our impact on the health of our rivers and landscapes. Our interpretive lobby offers educational resources for the public to better understand the area’s agricultural, scientific, and recreational assets. We are committed to ensuring the longevity of our natural resources for future generations through this convergence of science, education, and stewardship.
