Mission Statement
Clean Water Action is a citizen's organization working locally, statewide, and nationally for clean, safe, affordable water resources, the prevention of health threatening pollution, the creation of environmentally safe jobs and businesses, and the empowerment of individuals to make democracy work. Clean Water Action organizes strong grassroots coalitions and campaigns to accomplish these goals. With nearly one million members nation-wide and 170,000 members in Michigan, Clean Water Action is one of the largest, most effective grassroots groups in the country.
Description
Clean Water Action demands a clean and safe environment. To work towards this goal we help citizens demand a clean and safe environment by lobbying full-time, organizing and working with citizen coalitions to achieve strong environmental laws and their enforcement, and working to elect pro-environmental candidates. Our research and educational programs document community health problems and involve and encourage citizens to solve them.
