Choose Clean Water Coalition’s Commitment to Shared Values and Respect

The Choose Clean Water Coalition is committed to providing a safe, respectful, and welcoming environment for our staff, members, sponsors, partners, and guests at the conference. It is the responsibility of all conference attendees to treat each other with dignity and respect during all portions of the conference, including social events. We are dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, religious views, race, or ethnicity.

Our Coalition does not tolerate the harassment, discrimination, bullying, intimidation, abuse of authority, or mistreatment of any individual. 

If you experience or witness harassment, feel uncomfortable, or have any other concerns, please report this immediately to any member of the Coalition team. The Coalition will quickly take appropriate measures to protect those who have experienced harassment or mistreatment to ensure they feel safe for the duration of the conference.

The Choose Clean Water Coalition takes pride in providing inclusive spaces for all of our attendees through means of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. We’ve provided ways to be more accommodating, but if there is anything else we can add to make this conference more comfortable for you, please don’t hesitate to reach out. If you have any questions, requests or recommendations please contact Drew Robinson at RobinsonAQ@nwf.org or 443-927-8049.
