Community Water Leaders Network
The Community Water Leaders Network (CWLN) is a group of local elected officials and water decision-makers with the unified mission of increasing access to safe, clean, and affordable drinking water in the San Joaquin Valley. CWLN members highlight key drinking water issues facing their communities, advocate for resources and share important drinking water information with their constituents.
Civic Engagement
To solve the drinking water crisis, we need elected officials who are responsive and accountable to the communities they represent. To that end, CWC’s civic engagement work focuses on conducting voter outreach and education on water issues, mobilizing voters on key issues, and engaging a broader base of supporters in the movement for water justice.
