Description

In today’s rapidly evolving Clean Water landscape, building a proactive communications platform is no longer an option. A utility’s communication program, or lack of one, directly impacts its relationship with ratepayers and the public; stakeholders and governing bodies; legislators and regulators; and even its own managers and employees — all of which impact the utility’s bottom line and long-term viability.

Join us as we share expert strategies, resources and peer-to-peer solutions from some of the best water sector communicators in the country, and come away with concrete action plans to improve your platform, and grow your nationwide network.

Whether innovating a platform or building a new one, discovering new tactics or developing messages, planning a campaign or preparing for crisis, StratComm: H2O is your utility’s catalyst for strategic long-term change and growth.

Register today, and build your utility’s voice, as together, we build a unified the clean water sector. 

Special StratComm registration options available for utilities servicing populations under 75,000. Please contact Tina Kenia at registration@nacwa.org for more information.
