About
Central Minnesota Water Education Alliance (CMWEA) is a coalition of Central Minnesota cities, counties, townships, and other organizations that provides educational outreach to promote water quality stewardship.
The mission of CMWEA is to develop and implement educational programs that encourage individuals in Central Minnesota to protect water resources by increasing their knowledge and making simple behavior changes. By working in concert, the members of CMWEA are able to provide a consistent water quality educational message in a cost-effective manner. Funding is provided by membership dues.
Our members
Other communities and organizations interested in joining CMWEA are welcome. For more information on CMWEA, to report illegal dumping or water quality issues, please contact any of the members listed below.
