The River Access Paddle Program (RAPP!) works towards promoting the Duwamish River as a safe and accessible place to get exercise for all. RAPP also work with several Duwamish River organizations to create more accessibility, education and awareness of the Duwamish River and the Salish Sea. Thankfully, with the 2024 Duwamish River Opportunity Fund grant RAPP is able to offer these free programs to the public to encouraging health and education around Seattle’s only river. To date RAAP has removed thousands of pounds of trash from the river with the help of amazing volunteers like you.
