Colorado Foundation for Water Education

The mission of the Colorado Foundation for Water Education is to promote better understanding of Colorado's water resources and issues by providing balanced and accurate information and education.  They are the only statewide non-profit, non-advocacy organization providing water resource information and education. The Foundation accomplishes its mission through educational publications, river basin tours, professional development courses and much more.

The Foundation is the only impartial organization educating people about water issues in California and the West. They are a  resource for in-depth, impartial information on such issues as environmental restoration, water rights and water quality.

Colorado Water Congress

Since 1958, the Colorado Water Congress has been bringing water users from throughout Colorado into a nonprofit organization dedicated to a smooth-functioning, nonpartisan structure. Through open forums and committees, and thoughtful action for both water education and sound legislation, we provide the strong leadership Colorado needs to better manage, protect, conserve and develop this most vital of natural resources.
