About

Leveraging Collaboration and Innovation to Maximize Influence

NACWA's 2025 Winter Conference will provide a dynamic forum for exchanging ideas, sharing best practices, and forging new collaborations that will drive the future of the clean water sector. With a focus on collaboration and innovation, the event will empower participants to maximize their influence and drive transformative change in the water sector, ensuring a healthier and more sustainable future for all. 

The Conference will also emphasize the growing need for coalition-building within the water sector, encouraging clean water utilities to align with other sectors and industries to achieve shared advocacy goals. This includes partnering with the private sector – integrating cutting-edge technologies and innovations, enhancing clean water operations' efficiency, resilience, and sustainability – and NGOs to protect public health and the environment.

The California Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASA) will be hosting its 2025 Winter Conference in nearby Palm Springs the same week and we’re looking forward to collaborating with them. The concurrent NACWA and CASA events will present a unique opportunity for NACWA members to network with top water leaders from both California and the nation.

Words from Past Attendees

"What I like most about this event is the opportunity to hear from utility leaders about what they are working on, both with and beyond NACWA.”

“Hearing about current issues by those that are either facing the issues, have faced the issues or have expertise in navigating the issues was thought provoking and helpful.”
