In the classroom & special programs

The Water Education Foundation offers a variety of programs to teach students, our future voters and leaders, and young professionals about water.

  • Our yearlong Water Leaders program identifies up-and-coming community leaders from diverse backgrounds, including members of minority and ethnic communities, and educates them about water issues.
  • The Water Education Foundation serves as the California coordinator for Project WET (Water Education Today), an international K-12 program designed for formal and non-formal educators.
  • We began our Colorado River Project in 1997 focusing on the iconic Southwestern river. Today, our project includes educational tours along the river, a basin map, a guide on the basin’s background and current issues, news stories and a water leadership program.
