Clean water is a human right, not a privilege. Based in CA Central Valley & Central Coast, our work is devoted to community-driven solutions for water justice.

“I was enrolled in the bottled water program offered by CWC... But I decided not to ask for help anymore because I know that most of these programs are funded by the government. I’m afraid that information could be used against me at some point." https://t.co/lZT2k0A27W

Today, community partners from the Central Valley travel to Modesto for the Exception Policy Hearing. CWC was part of a panel presentation with org allies and community partners. We will continue to advocate until everyone has safe drinking water.

Election Day is today! Polls are now open.

Polls close at 8 p.m. If you arrive at a voter center by 8 p.m and are still waiting in line, you can still vote. Never leave the polling place without voting.

“Tenemos problemas porque nuestra agua está contaminada con nitratos, y para nosotros vivir con eso y pensar que tenemos que conseguir agua limpia por otro lado porque no se puede tomar ni cocinar con ella.”- Isabel Morales, residente de Royal Oaks. https://t.co/gQ1HWmzilw

Last Friday, community partners in the Central Coast met with @CASpeakerRivas’ district staff to ask them to prioritize the SAFER backfill. We want to thank Speaker Rivas’ staff for taking the time to hear our partners’ stories and ask.

But at the cost of families losing critical funding solutions like the SAFER program that funds emergency drinking water solutions.
